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 aire ...
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 until I see her again.
(Ginger Patton)
