Please don't cry because I left you. I simply had a
job to do.
I had to cross over to heaven, to get things ready for
you.
If anyone in the world knows you, it would certainly
be me.
Look at all those hours I spent laying at your feet.
God only puts us together for a little while and, of
me, you were always so proud.
Down there is where I stole your heart away. Up here
we will dance on the clouds.
I am already staying at your mansion; there are other
animals here too.
All of us have one thing in common; we had the best
owner ever ... YOU!
I am not sure when we will meet again; each day down
there is a gift.
I am waiting with anticipation, to give you your first
heavenly puppy kiss!
There is one sure way to mend your heartache and to
keep you from being so sad,
Go find another pup eventually, give them the same
special life I had!
Thank you for making my life with you special every
single day.
Like always, I will meet you at the front door when
God brings you up this way!!!
