Aimyloo and Shotzi

There are a couple of poems which we have posted on occasion. I think today in honor of your dear Shina and Niki, it would be approriate to post them again. IF IT SHOULD BE....

*If it should be that I grow weak, and pain should keep me from my sleep, then you must do what must be done, for this last battle can't be won.

You will be sad-I understand, don't let your grief then stay your hand, for this day more than all the rest, your love and friendship stand the test.

We've had so many happy years, what is to come can hold no fears, you'd not want me to suffer, so, when the time comes, please let me go.

Take me where my needs they'll tend, only stay with me until the end, and hold me firm and speak to me, until my eyes no longer see.

I know in time that you will see it is a kindness you do to me, although my tail its last has waved, from pain and suffering I've been saved.

And please don't grieve, it should be you who has to decide this thing to do.

We've been so close-we two-these years, don't let your heart hold any tears... * author unknown
