They handled
themselves with beauty & grace
and who could
ever forget that beautiful face
Weather at work;
or at home; whatever the test
they always
worked hard; and did their best
They were real
champions; at work or at play
but their lives
were cut short; suddenly one day
While working on
the job with their partner one day
they put themselves
out on a limb; out into harms way
They gave the
ultimate sacrifice; any dog can give
they gave up
their life; so someone could live
The best of
their breed; as his partner and anyone would say
many hearts are
now broken; that he had to prove it this way
Now as the trees
are blowing in the gentle breeze
the sun is
shining; thru the leaves on the trees
The meadows are
green; and the grass grows tall
off in the
distance they can see a waterfall
As they look
over the falls; down through the creek
the water flows
gently; as a rabbit sneaks a peek
Far up above; in
the deep blue sky
they see the
birds soar high; as they fly by
They see animals
playing; at the bridge by a waterfall
chasing each
other; and just having a ball
They play all
day; from morning to night
there's no more
rain; just warm sunlight
Off in the
distance; they hear trumpets blow
then all the
animals look up; and notice a bright glow
The harps would
play and the angels would sing
as they know
they've come home; they've earned their wings
We remember that
they died; in the line of duty
and are now with
the Lord; sharing in heaven's beauty
Off to the
meadows now; where they can play and roam free
with an
occasional rest stop; under a tall oak tree
No more bad guys
to chase; or bullets to take
just a run
through the meadow; down to the lake
A quick splash
in the water; then back to the shore
then it's off to
the forest; to go play some more
These special
dogs are back home; up in heaven above
they're cradled
in God's arm's; and covered with His love
We'll light a
candle for all of them; in the dark of night
in loving memory
of all; these very special knights
(John Quealy)
