On the day I buried you,
I felt my heart turn cold.
My grief I had turned inward,
No thing released that hold.
My need was great, my life empty,
I needed a puppy,
Just like you, to replace
this gap,I was so lost.
Then came Rubin.
Replace, he could not.
Did he sense my disappointment,
would my anger hurt him?
Time has passed and once again
I’ve found a love,
he brings joy and laughter.
No he is not you, but one onto himself.
And I find that my heart does melt,
when I look into his loving eyes, for
I see Rubin and thank God
For in his infinite wisdom,
he knew you could not be replaced,
He sent me Rubin,
by his amazing grace.
At peace with your loss,
