Elliemae's Story
Elliemae, the delightful Parti Color Yorkie, would greet loved ones with her soft bark, often "bark talking" excitedly in the kitchen for a bite of turkey. She loved to melt into hands for ear rubs, give little kisses, and playfully lie upside down for belly rubs, sometimes even sticking out her tongue at Alex or putting her paw up for Gabrielle. Now, she runs pain-free through tall, cool grass and naps peacefully in a flowered garden.

Lyrics
Intro - ukulele, light percussion
Verse 1
The moment I walked through the door,
Your soft bark would always greet me,
You'd say "Please give me some more,"
Of the great smelling food you'd treat me.
With Hedgie or Lamb Chop in sight,
You'd jump and you'd prance and you'd play,
Your little kisses, pure delight,
As my hand gently made your day.
Chorus
Oh, Elliemae, sweet Elliemae,
Seventeen wonderful years we shared,
Bringing sunshine every day,
A love beyond compare.
Verse 2
You'd lie on your back, upside down so sweet,
A silly stare, "Rub my belly, please!"
When Alex came in, a bark or a tongue's quick treat,
For Gabrielle, a paw up with such ease.
The kitchen walk, a happy, excited call,
"Bark talk" for one last bite of turkey, oh my!
Then down you'd lay, giving your all,
For that belly rub beneath my eye.
Chorus
Oh, Elliemae, sweet Elliemae,
Seventeen wonderful years we shared,
Bringing sunshine every day,
A love beyond compare.
Bridge
I loved you your whole life through,
I'll miss you for the rest of mine,
Until we meet again, my sweet girl, it's true,
I wish I could hold you one last time.
Instrumental - ukulele, acoustic guitar
Final Chorus
Oh, Elliemae, sweet Elliemae,
Seventeen wonderful years we shared,
Bringing sunshine every day,
A love beyond compare.
Outro
Now running free in tall cool grass so green,
The sun on your precious face, no pain,
Napping in gardens, a beautiful scene,
Forever in my heart you will remain.
Outro - ukulele fade
