Gone Now My Love. But Remembered
Gone now is the patter of little feet when I felt alone
Gone now is the cold nose I felt when I was depressed to heal my mind
Gone now are those deep brown eyes, she listened to every word when I told her my troubles
Gone now is the exuberance that met me when I awoke each day for 11 years of her life
Gone now but remembered was the greeting when you came home tired. She would look to you, wag that tail and say “I missed you – welcome home”
Gone now she hid her pains to show me all her love till she parted this earth
Gone now but still here in my heart with these memories that I cherish
Gone now but she will be in heaven, tail wagging, awaiting my arrival, to be there for eternity with me to play and be by my side as she was while she was always here
Gone now but forever in our memories
This poem was written by my husband within a month of Boscos passing.
Forever in our hearts
