When we lose a pet we are losing a friend. If you want to place a beloved pet on this page write me with a picture and a small explanation and I will put your dog on this page.
It Should Be
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, can’t be won.
You will be sad -- I understand,
Don’t let 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 to suffer so,
When the time comes, please let me go.
Take me where my needs they’ll tend,
Only please, stay with me until the end.
Hold me very firm and speak to me,
Until my eyes can no longer see.
I know in time you too will see,
It is a kindness that you do to me.
Although my tail its last has moved,
From pain and suffering I’ve been saved.
Don’t grieve that it should 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.
