Ode to A Dog

Faithful companion until the end
A selfless love that never ends
So pure and true
I thank God for you
My truest friend
This heart you mend
With just a look
Your love I took
The greatest gift I will ever receive
So much greater than you would believe
Unconditional love you give
I’ll never know a purer love as long as I live
I thank you my sweet little friend
For my soul’s wounds you always tend
Our time together far too brief
You’ll leave me with the deepest grief
But I’ll carry you with me always
Until we meet we meet at the rainbow bridge at the end of my days.
