See You Again

The Spirit of a child but with Instinct and Cunning
Heart of a Golden Huntress
Eyes of Eternal Love and Forgiveness
Ears that Heard every word I said
Feet that were Swift to bring me a Smile
A Beauty unsurpassed
This Breathtaking creature, surely one of God's Finest
My Gift of Life and Love
Seeing from the Heart those things which were hidden
Courage and Confidence a beautiful Coat of Faith
A Kind Tongue to gently heal the wounds when others lashed out
Bold and Brilliant with Undeniable Excellence
She waits for me my Friend...
See You Again
 
- For my great husky mix dog Tara

Many people have wonderful pets for friends
I consider them to be my "treasures in heaven"
Thanks for letting me share mine with you

A beautiful tribute to the best friend man has ever had and will ever know. I believe you cannot know love until you have truly loved a dog. Awesome.

Thanks so much for your visit and kind words Kilo :) I have many different animal companions who have gone on...It's always hard to say goodbye, but it wouldn't be life to me without them. C. H.

That is really beautiful, Chris. : ) I had a husky mix when I was a boy - supposedly - he really looked like a small Bernese Mountain Dog, never knew for sure.

Finally I found another poem which I had previously missed:) A lovely and touching tribute to a pet dog, accompanied by an equally lovely photo:) I reckon you're a 70s girl, which according to my maths means that you are still pretty young! ~ Regards // paul

Thanks Paul...I think this one applies to many a person's canine friend:) I guess I should consider myself still young...too bad my body's feeling considerably older haha!

Such a nice tribute through poetry Chris. We raised a mixed Shepherd from a 6 week old pup, and he lived to be 15 in human years. It was very hard to accept that he was moving on to a new realm, so I understand the attachment. I give this one a "7"

Thanks so much for reading... I was surrogate mom to a rejected foal at a horse farm and she didn't even make it to 1 yr...very sad, but still a wonderful connection. Sorry to hear about your Shepherd mix.
