Pupperz, you were not our pet...you were a member of our family for almost 12 years. How do we go on without you? You gave so much and asked for so little in return. You were the one that never laid expectations on any of us. You loved us the way that were. There will never be another that will fit in your paws! 



Do not stand at my grave

and weep,

I am not there, I do not sleep.

I am a thousand winds that blow;

I am the diamond glints on snow.

I am the sunlight on ripened grain;

I am the gentle autumn's rain.

When you awaken in the

morning's hush,

I am the swift uplifting rush

Of quiet birds in circled flight.

I am the soft star that shines

at night.

Do not stand at my grave and cry.

I am not there; I did not die.



********************************



God saw you getting tired

and a cure was not to be,

so he put his arms around you,

and whispered "Come to me".

With tearful eyes we watched you,

and saw you pass away.

Although we loved you dearly,

we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,

hard working hands at rest,

God broke our hearts to prove to us

He only takes the best.

A dog he was,

 A great one too!

I'm glad we got to treasure you!

You hurt too much,

 Yet you kept going.

Your will sped up, your body slowing.

It hurt us so, to see you hurt,

 Though peaceful now, in the dirt

If felt so wrong to say good-bye,

 You were too strong to ever die!

Though dead you are, your spirit lives

 The part of you that gives and gives!

You'll never be forgotten, and ALWAYS missed,

 Since day one, that we've been blissed.

Your breath, your smile, your loving ways,

 Will be remembered for all our days, ALWAYS!

                         Love ya, PUPPERZ!

                               Samantha
