How Lucky



So many thoughts have been inspired

By the loss of a pet from earth retired.

My mind and heart still hug him within

That's why I write these words about him.

For even though he has gone away

The memories like music continue to play.

The music I hear is ever so sweet

With a comforting, soft and soothing beat.

Like the angelic voice of Sarah Brightman

Thoughts of him and my mood just lightens.

The thought of him brings twinkling eyes,

The thought of him turns frowns to smiles.

I look at his picture upon my desk

I think to myself he was the best!

So lucky was I to have such a pet

So lucky was I the two of us met.
