This is my Golden Retriever a wonderful four-legged friend
Who I chose to be my walking partner as through life I wend
A bundle of fluff so soft and sweet I loved him straight away
He licked my hand, I lost my heart and brought him home to stay.
He's gonna be big - his paws were huge a perfect name must be found
Samson said I, it will suit him well he will be a strong and faithful hound.
He grew and grew into a handsome boy he loved to swim and play
With balls & sticks and anything he would run & run all day.
But now he's ten he's slowing down he sleeps most of the day
But mention walkies and he's up and ready to be away.
At night he sleeps close to my bed. Makes more noise than a drum
And, when he wakes, his nose I feel pressed up against my bum
He nudges hard - just won't give in until he finds my hand
Then I must stroke him on his head he sighs and thinks that's grand.
I trust he will be with us for a long long time to come
There is a special magic when your dog becomes your chum.
