How do I say Good-Bye
How do I say Good-Bye to my very best friend, A little boy I've known and loved right up until the end.
You came into our lives on a sunny April day, I never knew what an imprint on my heart you would lay.
Your button eyes and little black nose were the first things I adored.
Who knew all the laughter and the tears that we would endure.
With each new brother or sister, you never made a fuss, you would just look them over, and then seem to say "you're welcome here with us."
As time passed and your little body weakened, you endured your shots of insulin and tugged at my heartstrings even deeper.
My little one, my special one, if only I had known, that summer night when you took ill, I wouldn't bring you home.
You laid your head upon my hands and I looked into your little black eyes, and then very peacefully, you went to sit by Gods' side.
Many tears have been shed and many more will come.
And until the day we meet again, know how much I loved you little one......
Written for my very best pal in the world, my first poodle, Kelly-Boy. Died at 12 years of age after a 2 year battle with pancreatitis.
