Hi guys, I sadly had to put my dog, lady, to sleep 2 weeks ago. She was 16 years old and had had a stroke and could no longer walk. It was a very sad day for all my family and to help us through it i wrote a short poem in memory of Lady. I hope this may help people who are going through the same situation.
Your sparkling eyes stare at me,
As if to say, "you and i can be we".
I took you home, there to stay,
Part of our lives, to love and to play.
Before we knew it, fourteen years had passed,
And then came the day that your tail wagged its last.
I knew right then what i had to do,
Take you somewhere they could care for you.
As we lay you down, to let you sleep,
We see your body breathe a sigh of relief.
The right thing was done to let you go,
But the pain and sorrow, you will never know.
How much we miss you every day,
Forever in our hearts the memories will stay.
Dedicated to the best friend ever, R.I.P now, the pain in over x x x
