TO BARRON A LOVING COMPANION A TRUE FRIEND
You’re giving me a special gift, So sorrowfully endowed, And through these last few cherished days your courage makes me proud.
But really love is knowing When your best friend is in pain and understanding earthly acts will only be in vain. So looking deep into your eyes Beyond , into your soul, I see in you the magic that Once more will make me whole. The strength that you possess is why I look to you today, To do this thing that must be done for it’s the only way. That strength is why I’ve followed you, And chose you as my friend, And why I’ve loved you all these years….. My partner till the end.
Please, understand just what this gift you are giving , means to me, it gives me back the strength I’ve lost, And all my Dignity. You take a stand on my behalf, for that is what friends do, and know that what you do is right for I believe it too. So one last time, I breathe your scent And through your hand I feel the courage that’s within you, To now grant me this appeal.
Cut the leash that holds me here, dear friend and let me run, Once more a strong and steady dog, my pain and struggle done. And don’t despair my passing , For I won’t be far away, Forever here, within your heart, and memory I’ll stay. I’ll be there watching over you your ever faithful friend, and in your memories I’ll run A young dog once again .

 

We will always love and miss you Barron
