Sending love.....
I lost a treasured friend today
The little dog who used to lay
Her gentle head upon my knee
And shared her silent thoughts with me.
She’ll come no longer to my call
Retrieve no more her favourite ball
A voice far greater than my own
Has called her to his golden throne.
Although my eyes are filled with tears
I thank him for the happy years
He let her spend down here with me
And for her love and loyalty.
When it is time for me to go
And join her there, this much I know
I shall not fear the transient dark
For she will greet me with a bark.

Thank you all for your kind words and thoughts. "The Rainbow Bridge" always brings a tear to my eyes when I read it and think of all of the friends that I have been fortunate to have over my life, and now there is another poem that does the same. While there is sadness from the loss, there was so much joy with having our friends in our lives that it makes the ultimate grief at least a bit bearable. I can't tell you all how many times Jenny knew that I had one of those days at work and decided to do something "goofy" to pick up my spirits. I wish you all much happiness with your "fur babies".
