---

Amidst the years, a bond so true,

Beneath the moonlight, Pupu grew.

Cuddled close on nights so cold,

Dancing tales of love retold.

Every whisker, every hop,

February 3rd, his birthday atop.

Gentle soul, my bunny friend,

Heartfelt joy, a love to mend.

In the twilight of his age,

Journeyed with him, page by page.

Kindred spirits, hand in paw,

Love so deep, no flaw.

My heart cradles him, oh so tight!

Nestled close, our shared twilight.

On this day, a decade unfolds,

Pupu Bunny, stories untold.

Quiet moments, our souls entwine,

Radiating love, so divine!

Sadness veils the joyous cheer,

Tears cascade, held so near.

Unveiling a truth, a silent sound,

Valiantly, we face what is found.

With each heartbeat, a tender grace,

Xenial love in every embrace.

Yearning for more time to borrow,

Zealous love, for Pupu, I'll sorrow.
