Little Jack has passed away

He suddenly went down
He was lying next to me in bed
And his stillness caught my attention
Because he was always something else instead

An alive ball of energy
The original creative little ball of fun
And now his time is over
His time on this earth is done

And I love him for his memories
His aliveness and his spark
He was always right there with the pack
Adding in his little bark

He had a big heart
And god knows a friendly smile
I had found him as a puppy
Coming back from a run of ten miles

I've got to see if he was poisoned
Because he went too sudden and quick
I got to know if darkness is moving
And doing what is inhumanly sick

Maybe the new big dog
Hurt him I don't know
He went so quick not even time to
Take him to the vet ahhh man I loved him so

And he certainly loved me back
A terrier with a big big heart
He had turned into solid muscle
And certainly tried to do his part

I just don't know what happened
Now all of a sudden he's still
I'll honor him the best I can
I will pay tribute to the strengths

Of his love and energy and will
