My best friend closed his eyes last
night, As his head was in my hand.
The Doctors said he was not in pain,
but no longer could he stand.
The thoughts that scurried through
my head, as I cradled him in my arms,
were of his younger, puppy years,
and OH...his many charms.
Today, there was no gentle nudge
with a soft "I love you gaze",
Only a heart that’s filled with tears
remembering our joy filled days.
