Missing My Friend
As a pup you arrived, full of mischief and fun,
A bundle of joy, my friend, always ready to run.
Hours we spent with toys and just walking,
Sometimes I’m sure I could hear you talking.
My best friend and companion, always at my side
Even when it got sticky you’d never hide.
To protect and to love me, your job I assume
You’d brighten each day coming into the room.
Now you are gone a big space in my heart
I see you everywhere, even though we’re apart
I miss the times when there was just you and I
I will even admit that when I think of you I cry
Your life was so special to me and our family
The hurt will not mend, my heart broken, sadly
I am just so pleased we were friends for so long
I miss you and love you even knowing you’re gone
One day my time to join you will surely come
then again with my pup I’ll laugh, smile & run.
