To Our Ellie

Little dog with the so big heart

With attitude to spare

Courageous little herding dog

Stole my heart before I was aware

Little dog with the so big heart

They’d all say, “she’s cute as a button”

Controlled her sheep like she owned our hearts

With such enthusiastic abandon

 

Little dog with the so big heart

Feared nothing in her way

Lived her life with wholehearted delight

Then, left us empty one January day

 

Little dog with the so big heart

Now lays ‘neath the willow tree

By the pond on the farm where she lived her life

Where her essence will always be

 

 

Ellie and her son, Breeze
