As we lay you down to sleep Treasured memories forever we shall keep Of all the fun and hours of joy You gave us George our darling boy. Your cheeky grin and smiling face Now lingers with such gentle grace We think of when you came to stay Shoes off, happy, ready to play. Books we’d read time after time That made your eyes so brightly shine Of dogs and cats never quite enough But always ending with Billy Goats Gruff. Although our hearts ache every day You will never be far away Watching us all from where you are Darling George our twinkly star.
