When Lucky Came to Life that Day

Well we had to sit out Lucky Pup Rescue’s Adopt a Tree Festival this year at Santa Paws Fest. I understand these things happen, but Asa was really looking forward to it this year. That’s because when we last attended in 2019 something magical happened. Lucky the stuffed animal came to life! Here is Asa’s song about that special day as sung to the tune of “Frosty the Snowman.”

Lucky the stuffie 
Was a jolly happy soul
With two floppy ears
And big fuzzy paws
And a plastic button nose

Lucky the stuffie 
Is a fairy tale they say
He was made of fluff
But the puppies know
How he came to life one day

There must have been some magic
At that festival of trees 
For when Lucky walked inside 
He began to dance around

Lucky the stuffie 
Was alive as he could be
And the puppies say
He could bark and play
Just the same as you and me

Lucky the stuffie 
Knew the festival was just that day 
So he said, “Let’s run
And we’ll have some fun
Now before the trees go away.”

Down through the aisles
With the puppies following him 
Running here and there
All around the fair 
Barking “Catch me if you can!”

He jumped and rolled upon the floor 
In front of Santa Claus
And he only paused a moment when
He heard the cameras click! 

Lucky the stuffie 
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye saying, 
“Don’t you bark
I’ll be back again some day!”

Thumpity, thump, thump
Thumpity, thump, thump
Look at Lucky wag

Thumpity, thump, thump
Thumpity, thump, thump
Luckiest pup of all!

Asa and Lucky on that magical day at Santa Paws Fest for Lucky Pup Rescue in 2019.
Maybe if I give my puppy stuffie a boop on the nose like I did that day at the festival he’ll come alive too?
