My Forever Pet
by Suzanne Taylor
There's something missing in my home,
I feel it day and night,
I know it will take time and strength
Before things feel quite right.
But just for now I need to mourn,
My heart - it needs to mend.
Though some may say it's "just a pet"
I know I've lost a friend.
You've bought such laughter to my home,
and richness to my days...
A constant friend through joy or loss,
With gentle, loving ways.
Companion, pal, and confidante,
A friend I won't forget,
You'll live for always in my heart,
My sweet, forever pet...

Rest In Peace Our Beloved Friend

Four Feet in Heaven
Your favorite chair is vacant now...
No eager purrs to greet me.
No softly padded paws to run
Ecstatically to meet me.
No coaxing rubs, no plaintive cry
Will say it's time for feeding.
I've put away your bowl, and all
The things you won't be needing;
But I will miss you little friend,
For I could never measure
The happiness you brought me,
The comfort and the pleasure.
And since God put you here to share
In earthly joy and sorrow;
I'm sure there'll be a place for you
In Heaven's bright tomorrow...
