Baba

Baba
Your tattered coat dirtied through the years
As we travelled along
Bumpy road
Your pink muddy coat covers your bright, funny soul
Your feet are as demolished as the abandoned house down the road
Your tattered coat dirtied through the years
As we travelled along
Bumpy road.

You make me smile when I am sad while you do your little jig,
You tell me your deepest darkest secrets when we are alone,
We run away together at night just to our land,
Not too far,
We talk to the animals at the zoo,
RAHH! The tiger screams at our faces.
When we get bored, you say to me, “Oh what can we do?”
Your little smiling face, hoping that I’ll keep you forever,
When your time is gone, I will always store you in my heart.
We will be buried together,
You and I.
