Gone So Soon…….

They say memories are golden, well, maybe that is so.  I never wanted memories, I only wanted you.  A million times I will miss you, a million times I will cry.  If love alone could have saved you; you never would have gone so soon.  In life I loved you dearly, in death I love you still.  In my heart you hold a place, no other pup will fill.  It broke my heart to lose you, but you did not go alone.  For part of me went with you, the day God called you home.  Your precious memories are my keepsake, with which I'll never part.  God has you safe in His keeping, but I'll hold you forever in my heart.  If tears could build a stairway, and heartache make a lane.  I would walk the path to heaven just to bring you back again.  Our family chain has now been broken, and nothing will be the same.  But as God calls on us one by one, the chain will link again.

Our Angel........

Hello. I've been expecting you for quite some time.  Here, come sit beside us for awhile, and let me tell you about this old friend of mine. She might look tattered or maybe old.  But I won't say goodbye until you've been told.  She had the brightest eyes I had ever seen, and wore a beautiful fur coat that would out shine a queen.  She was never prissy but walked with an air ...... And oh so polite, you could take her most anywhere.  She could run like the wind and could catch anything she chased.  But she protected and sat with me when I had problems to face.  You could not find a friend nearly so dear.  Because no matter the trouble she always stayed near... She has never asked for much from me; Just to love and respect her, and I think you'll agree.  To give her a good meal plus a nice warm bed is not much to ask; When she has given me all her love, and to her this was no task.  Now I understand you have a schedule to keep.  But I have a small favor before she nods off to sleep.  Please fold your wings around her and let her feel young while in no pain; Dear Guardian Angel of Pets, please keep her safe and happy
