Gloria Vojchehoske Poet I do not know?

My Baby

My baby died this
morning.
It happened so fast,
without any warning.

Mugsy woke us up,and
we found you on the floor.
You wouldn't even get up,
and come out the door.

We rushed you to the
Shenandoah Vet.
So gentle,were we,to
our pet.

We left her there,for
Doc to fix.
Before we left town,
we got no more licks.

She was my baby,cant
you see.
Why Lord,why did you
take her from me?

It was so hard,to dress you,
in your sweater.
But, I know you're going
to someplace better.

I sure will miss our
watching"Bad Boys"
together.
I will dread the winter,
and all the bad weather.

No longer will you live,
in bogus land.
God will now hold you in his hand.

Mugsy will no longer plow
a path for you.
She sits, by the back door,
and waits for you.

No longer will you come 
through that door.
But, Mugsy will sit there,
and wait some more.

You were like a child
to me.
But God said;I had to
let you go,and set you free.

We loved you so much,
and you were so soft,to
the touch.
You were so sweet,and
fast on your feet.

We are so close,but yet,
so far apart.
You'll always be,right here,
next to my heart.
