One more day

If I could have but one more day,
We’d walk again our favorite way,
Two friends together as before
But no, alas, you are no more.
 
No ball to throw, no bowl to fill,
Your lead hangs limp, your toys lie still,
No welcome bark, no peaceful snore,
An empty space upon the floor.
 
If I could hold you once again,
I’d kiss your head, I’d call your name,
I’d whisper gently as we part …
You’re safe, asleep within my heart.
