THE GARDEN

God looked around the garden
And found an empty place
He then looked down upon the earth
And saw your tired out face

He put his arms around you
And lifted you to rest
Gods garden must be beautiful
He only takes the best

He knew that you were suffering
He knew you were in pain
He knew that you would never
Get well on earth again

He saw your road was getting rough
And the hills were hard to climb
So he closed your weary eyelids
And whispered peace be thyne

It broke my heart to lose you
But you didn’t go alone
For part of me went with you
The day God called you home.

GETTING TIRED

God saw you were getting tired
A cure was not to be
So he put his arms around you
And whispered “come with me “

With tearful eye’s we watched you suffer
And saw you fade away
Although we love you dearly
We could not make you stay

So when we saw you sleeping
So peacefully from pain
We could not wish you back again
To suffer that way again

A golden heart stopped beating
Hard working paws went to rest
God took you to prove to us
He only takes the best

In life I miss you dearly
In death I love you still
my heart holds a special place for you
No other dog will fill

Kindness
IN KINDNESS

If it should be that I grow frail and weak
And pain should keep me from my sleep
Then you must do what must be done
For this, the last battle, just cant be won

You will be sad said, 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 does come, Please let me go

I know in time you too 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

Don’t grieve that it should be you
Who has decided this thing to do
We’ve been so close throughout the years
Don’t let your heart hold any tears
Our pets
