Irish Blessing for the bassets of bassethoundtown!

I was searching for something on my blog and came across this posting from 5 years ago.  I am so glad I found it again and wanted to share it with the Irish residents (we are all Irish today).

IRISH BLESSING FOR BASSETS

May your Master love you dearly,
And keep you in his care.
May your days be filled with freedom,
To hunt the brush for hare.
When the hunt is over,
And your Master calls you in,
May you shower him with kisses,
And slobber on his chin!
Emma-1

For hounds who live with city folk,
May your need to track a scent be fulfilled
With toys and treats and daily jaunts
To parks and trails where nature flaunts
The wild adventure you long to share
With hounds and humans everywhere.

So while you bless the human race
With your kind and gentle love and grace
May you be blessed with many days
Of soaking up the sunshine rays
And many nights of peaceful sleep
Safely next to your Master’s keep.

Our lovely Emma from days gone by…

More loving blessings later…Cat, Daisy Lynn, (Chaps and Emma ATB laying in a rainbow 4 leaf clover field…)

    What a cool poem. Love seeing our lovely Emma. Sure do miss her.

    By the way, my last name is Doyle! I think that’s Irish. Altho I married in to it.
