Obi's Story
Obi, a gentle Malshi, found peace observing his beloved acreage, whether patiently staring over the paddocks or watching from his day bed under the stairs, never bothering the birds or insects. From his earliest camping trips at three months, sharing a seat by the campfire and curling up in the backpacker van, to quiet evenings on the recliner, he offered unwavering, loving gazes. He brought a profound comfort from the moment he arrived at seven weeks, a beautiful little man whose presence will be loved forever despite his journey ending too soon.

Lyrics
Intro - acoustic guitar, banjo
Verse 1
A little Malshi, so quiet and so mild,
Just seven weeks old, my acreage child.
You'd sit by the paddocks for hours, I recall,
Watching the world, standing ever so tall.
From your day bed beneath the old stairs,
You'd offer me comfort, easing my cares.
No chasing the birds, no bother to flies,
Just patience and gentleness in your sweet eyes.
Chorus
Obi, my heart, through eight gentle years,
You walked by my side, calming all my fears.
A beautiful spirit, a love so pure,
Your memory lives on, forever secure.
Verse 2
After dinner, in my recliner I'd be,
Watching a movie, with you close to me.
Upon my lap resting, with a loving soft gaze,
Bringing me solace through those golden days.
From three months old, camping under the sky,
In your own seat, as the campfires burned high.
Then into the van, our bed for the night,
You made every journey so joyful and bright.
Chorus
Obi, my heart, through eight gentle years,
You walked by my side, calming all my fears.
A beautiful spirit, a love so pure,
Your memory lives on, forever secure.
Verse 3
A gentle soul, loved by all you would meet,
Your quiet affection, incredibly sweet.
You rarely would bark, but a meow you would give,
When you wanted to go, and truly just live.
Though water might make your small paws retreat,
New people and pups, you were always keen to greet.
Especially children, they'd gather around,
The best little friend, that could ever be found.
Bridge
My beautiful little man, I love you forever true,
Thank you for every moment, and all that we went through.
I wished we could have grown old and weary, you and I,
I miss you terribly, beneath this wide sky.
Instrumental - ukulele, acoustic guitar
Final Chorus
Obi, my heart, through eight gentle years,
You walked by my side, calming all my fears.
A beautiful spirit, a love so pure,
Your memory lives on, forever secure.
Outro
I can't see or feel where you might be today,
Just memories from the past that still gently play.
Still watching the paddocks, in my mind's gentle gleam,
My quiet companion, a beautiful dream.
Outro - guitar fade
