A dedication to a best friend
The following is a dedication to a best friend, or inspired by a best dog friend of mine named Happy. I do not care if anyone thinks I am silly for writing this, but this poem or whatever you can classify it as was inspired by him. He is resting now, resting peacefully.
****
You came into my life
For such a short time
But it seemed like it was longer.
You brought joy to my heart
And laughter to my face.
I never had a bad time with you.
You were special
Something of a blessing
Your memories are so clear now.
So vivid and true.
They are like a window pane;
Misty in the rain
Clear in the sunshine.
I gave a part of me to you
And you took it Home with you.
No one will ever fill up that space
I dedicated to you.
I have shed many tears
I have said my final goodbyes
But I will never forget you.
I know you are sleeping
Resting so peacefully.
But your memory lives on just like you did.
I never owned you
Even though I have papers to show.
I only borrowed you.
God gave you to us
And then took you back home.
I have said my goodbyes
So rest, my friend,
I will see you soon.
****
Thank you, God, for letting me, my grandmother, my dog Ozzie, and my cousin and mother, to be able to spend time with Happy. He was a precious thing.
And...thank you, Happy, for making me laugh!
You were a great thing.
Goodbye, I love you.
And thank you, everyone, for your prayers and kindness.
Please do not take any offense on me, or treat me badly because of this or anything I have written today. This wonderful dog touched me in a way that deserves more than words can explain.
