Companion

I remember..... When I'd carry you in my pocket..... and how your hair felt like silk in the wind, and when your eyes sparkled in the moonlight, and when you barked such a little bark. I remember..... When you closed your tiny eyes, and saw the light. I knew it was your time to go. I remember my feelings..... As I came home from school, I felt my eyes as they began to tear. If I had one more chance..... I would give you your favorite bacon treats, I would let your little teeth nibble my fingers, I'd buy you a pretty pink shirt. I'd buy you a teddy to sleep with forever! If I had one more friend..... It would be you because, "I LOVE YOU." You make me smile when I see your cute face. Why did you have to go so soon?
