Pet Memorials

Member of the Family

What would I do without you,
My precious Furry Friend?
Part mischief, but all blessing,
and faithful to the end!
You look at me with eyes of love,
You never hold a grudge,
You think I'm far too wonderful
To criticize or judge.
It seems your greatest joy in life
Is being close to me,
I think God knew how comforting
Your warm, soft fur would be.
I know you think you're human,
But I'm glad it isn't true,
The world would be a nicer place
If folks were more like you.
A few short years are all we have,
One day we'll have to part,
But you, my pet, will always have
A place within my heart.

If tears could build a stairway
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to Heaven
and bring you home again.
No farewell words were spoken,
no time to say goodbye,
You were gone before I knew it
and only God knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness
and secret tears still flow.
What it meant to lose you,
no one will ever know.
