My Sweet Missy


For years, no one heard her cries;
barking, hoping some one would hear her.
All she heard was dogs barking and
crying in pain for years on end
But no one was there to listen or to care.


Now she is deaf, but safe.
My sorrow is that she can not hear my sweet voice
Talking to her, letting her know everything is okay.
But she knows by my love and gentle touch that I give her.
That she is at her forever home and will never leave.


She can’t hear me,
She never leaves my side,
Knowing I’ll always be there for her.


I know someday, we will have to say our goodbyes
But when that day comes, and we meet again,
She will hear my voice and know it is me.

Martha Logue

 


My Old Mill Dogs


Rescue dogs come and go,
But mine? They mostly stay.
For no one wants an older dog
Just young ones who run and play.


Some are old
And some are sick,
And some are sick and old.
But wait--they're only middle aged,
My age.
And that's still young I'm told.


They gave all they had to greedy man;
Their youth, their health, their pups,
And now they need a helping hand
But no one looks them up.


So they and I will stay right here
To age with dignity and grace.
With mutual love we will attempt
The pain and fear to erase.
And when time comes to cross the bridge
I hope that I can find
The same forgiveness in my heart
That they have for all mankind.
..........Jean Ensor

 


The Last Battle

If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep,
Then will you do what must be done,
For this -- the last battle -- can't be won.
You will be sad I understand,
But don't let grief then stay your hand,
For on this day, more than the rest,
Your love and friendship must stand the test.
We have had so many happy years,
You wouldn't want me to suffer so.
When the time comes, please, let me go.
Take me to where to my needs they'll tend,
Only, stay with me till the end.
And hold me firm and speak to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
I know in time you will agree
It is a kindness you do to me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
From pain and suffering I have been saved.
Don't grieve that it must 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~

For Nick, Kcin, Zeke, Casper, Abby, Skittles, and Missy
If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home.


 



GOING HOME


God looked around his garden and found an empty space,
He then looked down upon this earth and found your tired face.
He put his arm around you and lifted you to rest,
God's garden must be beautiful; He only takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering,
He knew you were in pain,
He knew you might not get well upon this earth again.
He saw the road was getting rough and the hills were
hard to climb.
So he closed your weary eyelids and whispered "Peace Be Thine"
It broke my heart to lose you but you never went alone,
For part of me went with you the day God called you home.


I'll Always Love You!!
