I remember the day you brought me home.
What a lucky day for me.
I had no idea how special the rest of my
life would be!
You are my best friend ever. We make a
perfect fit.
You taught me all I needed to know like how
to stay and sit.
You put up with a lot from me, back when I
was a pup,
Like accidents on the carpet and those
important papers I tore up.
Life is all about lessons, as I got older I
learned;
For years you have spoiled me rotten. You
put up with a lot from me.
Like the problem I have, I just can't
resist, when you get up and I steal your seat!
I love you lying next to me, the feel of
your gentle touch.
There is no way to thank you for your
kindness, for me you have done way too much.
As I come to the end of my journey and my
time is drawing near.
I want you to do one more thing for me, say
goodbye with a smile and happy tears.
Remember our fun times together that we had
right from the start.
You may not feel me lying beside you, but I
will ALWAYS be alive in your heart!!
