Wellington by Mark

With heavy hearts;
and a tear in my eyes
after all these years;
we must say goodbye
Please understand;
I’ve done all we could
if there was anything
I could do; you know I would.

I’m sitting right here;
gently rub your ears
while I talk to you softly;
trying to hold back the tears
The memories you gave me;
I’ll never forget
especially the ones;
of the day all met.

One last hug;
and one last kiss
you have no idea;
how much you’ll be missed.
To look into your eyes;
this one last time
you tell me it’s ok;
you know it’s your time.

Close your eyes now;
and go to sleep.
I’ll pray to the Lord;
your soul he’ll keep.
Go in peace now;
my good friend.
I’ll stay right here with you;
until the end.

Dream of that
special day and time
when we’ll meet again;
and all will be fine.
We’ll run and play; side by side
with a soft warm feeling;
deep down inside.

Your memory will live on.
you’ll always be
number 1 to me.
Have a safe journey;
through the night.
I promise when you awake;
you’ll be in God’s light.

So with heavy hearts;
and tears in my eyes
just for now my friend;
I say goodbye.

Mark
