Ode to Wally Bear the Flashlight Chaser

Ode to Wally Bear the Flashlight Chaser

In shades of onyx and alabaster clad,

Great Wally Bear the bernadoodle bounds with joy.  

His soul delights in pleasures simple, pure -

A flashlight's beam, a rubber ball, a toy.

With eyes that gleam and tail that wags in haste, 

He lives to give pursuit with tireless pace.

The dancing dot of light, it seems to taunt,

And laughing, Wally Bear resumes the merry chase.

O noble hound! Your heart knows but one care - 

To match the flashlight's roving, restless flare.

Though years may pass, you'll never cease to yearn

For bright beam's flickering, fading flare.

Stay ever young, sweet Wally Bear, and freely roam

To chase the dark, as dogs have always done.

Your lightning hunt brings laughter to this home.

To you, the game's the thing, the race far from won.
