My Furry Friend

I had a friend  he loved to nap
Usually on my bed, sometimes on my lap

He was very smart I tell you that
He didn't even mind my neighbour cat

His fur was brown, had very cute nose
He loved taking pictures he loved to pose

I loved him so much he had pretty good life
And then he got sick he couldn’t survive

Some time ago on the very cold day
It was last time for us to go out and play

I didn’t know how hard this would be
To say goodbye to Mitten for my boys and me
 
My heart was broken when I looked in his eyes
But I knew God will take him to his paradise

And then when he took his very last breath 
I couldn’t stop crying because I knew he was death

I miss him so much each and every day
I wish he didn’t die I wish he could stay

He was my friend best friend of all
I loved him a lot with my heart and soul

His name was Mitten I know he runs free
And plays with the angels 
                       And his waiting for me


Mitten was our family dog for 17 years, cancer took him away on, Feb7 2012
We all miss him a lot..:(
