What a terrible shame
She was a beautiful Dog.
God bless her.

The Dance

Looking back on the memory of
the dance we shared, beneath the stars above.
For a moment all the world was right,
how was I to know that you'd ever say good bye?
And now I'm glad I didn't know
the way it all would end, the way it all would go.
Our lives are better left to chance,
I could have missed the pain,
but I'd have had to miss the dance.
Holding you, I held everything,
for a moment, wasn't I the king?
If I'd only known how the king would fall
hey who's to say, you know I might have changed it all.
And now I'm glad I didn't know
the way it all would end, the way it all would go.
Our lives are better left to chance,
I could have missed the pain,
but I'd have had to miss the dance.

with love to sirena xx

Sunlight streams through window pane
unto a spot on the floor....
then I remember,
it's where you used to lie,
but now you are no more.
Our feet walk down a hall of carpet,
and muted echoes sound....
then I remember,
It's where your paws would joyously abound.
A voice is heard along the road,
and up beyond the hill,
then I remember it can't be yours....
your golden voice is still.
But I'll take that vacant spot of floor
and empty muted hall
and lay them with the absent voice
and unused dish along the wall.
I'll wrap these treasured memorials
in a blanket of my love
and keep them for my best friend
until we meet above.

I stood by your bed last night,

I came to have a peep.

I could see that your were crying,

You found it hard to sleep.



I whined to you softly

As you brushed away a tear,

"It's me, I haven't left you,

I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."



I was close to you at breakfast,

I watched you pour the tea,

You were thinking of the many times,

Your hands reached down to me.



I was with you at the shops today,

Your arms were getting sore.

I longed to take your parcels,

I wish I could do more.



I was with you at the grave today,

You tend it with such care.

I want to re-assure you,

That I am not laying there.



I walked with you towards the house,

As you fumbled for your key.

I gently put my paw on you,

I smiled and said "It's me."



You looked so very tired,

And sank into your chair,

I tried so hard to let you know,

That I was standing there.



It's possible for me,

To be so near you every day.

To say to you with certainty,

"I never went away."



You sat there very quietly,

Then smiled, I think you knew...

In the stillness of that evening,

I was very close to you.



The day is over...

I smile and watch you yawning,

And say, "Good-night, God Bless,

I'll see you in the morning."



And when the time is right for you,

To cross the brief divide,

I'll rush across to greet you,

And we'll stand, side by side.



I have so many things to show you,

There is so much for you to see.

Be patient, live your journey out..

Then come home to be with me.

From you to me

Dont walk in front-
I may not follow.

Dont walk behind-
I may not lead.

Walk beside me
And just be my friend.

We were so pleased to know you and be your friend..So proud of how you were you had the best nature ever. You gave us so much happiness we owe you our life.

We will never forget you we have a great big space nothing will ever fill..

Beyond the Rainbow

As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.

I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.

I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.

For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.

(Written by CG - 1995)

for your mummy

Rainbow Bridge
Just this side of heaven is a place called Rainbow Bridge.

When an animal dies that has been especially close to someone here, that pet goes to Rainbow Bridge.
There are meadows and hills for all of our special friends so they can run and play together.
There is plenty of food, water and sunshine, and our friends are warm and comfortable.

All the animals who had been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by.
The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.

They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; His eager body quivers. Suddenly he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.

You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.

Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together....

When God had made the earth and sky
the flowers and the trees,
He then made all the animals
the fish, the birds and bees.

And when at last He'd finished
not one was quite the same.
He said, "I'll walk this world of mine
and give each one a name."

And so He traveled far and wide
and everywhere He went,
a little creature followed Him
until it's strength was spent.

When all were named upon the earth
and in the sky and sea,
the little creature said, "Dear Lord,
there's not one left for me."

Kindly the Father said to him,
"I've left you to the end.
I've turned my own name back to front
and called you dog, My friend."

"Dear Master"
By: Shell Willson Copyright 2002





Dear Master,

Please don't grieve for me as my spirit has been set free

From this tired and withered body,

From your strength, love and devotion,

my journey to the light

has been made so much easier.

Your face and the sound of your voice

softly calling my name.

To me is music to my ears.

When the light has faded from my eyes.

Know this, your final unselfish act of love

Has saved me.

Until we met again.

Your Faithful companion.

For Sirena, xxx.

Have you a dog in Heaven, Lord?
Is there room for just one more?
Cause my little dog died today;
he'll be waiting at your door.

Please take him into Heaven, Lord.
And keep him there for me,
just feed him, pet him, love him, Lord,
that’s all he'll ask of Thee.

This Beautiful poem was left for me by Marion Madden, Now i Share it with you,xx.
