Until We See Each Other Again - a Tribute To My Dog
I remember the first time I saw you
You were a bundle of cuteness
With your huge ears
And unstoppable wagging tail
My heart choose you at first sight
You choose us too
When you snuggled in my arms
And gave a content sigh
Placing your head on my shoulder
You went to sleep in my arms
Safe, loved and trusting
You completed our lives
You became family
But time is merciless
And the years started to weight on your shoulders
You couldn't run so fast anymore
Nor play with your favorite toys
You didn't had the energy to dig up crabs on the beach
Nor run chasing birds
Until the day we noticed you couldn't jump on the sofa
Until the day we noticed that you were tired
Now we're left with the hardest decision
To let you rest your tired little body
To let you go to the Rainbow bridge...
To say goodbye...
We did our best for you
You were loved for the whole time you stayed with us
You had a happy, loved and long life.
Now you can rest my love...
We'll hold you until your last breath
Our faces will be the last thing you'll see before you sleep for the last time.
And when you wake up in the other side,
You'll find yourself surrounded by angels
Your body young and strong again
Able to run, and jump and bark...
So be patient love, and wait for us
Wait with the angels
We'll Keep you in our hearts
Until the day that we can meet again
I love you now, tomorrow and for eternity...
In memory of my beloved XUXÚ
