It’s been two weeks since you left me,the house is a lonely place without you here
I miss the “i got to pee dance” on my chest that helps me wake up
I still start to fix your breakfast, but realize you won’t be eating
In the evening after work I still rattle my keys as I come up the sidewalk, to let you know it’s me
I miss you curling up in my lap while i read the paper or watch TV
I still look for you to come around the corner when I open the refrigerator
As I move through the house I remember all the games we played
I’m still finding “cruncher” that you ‘buried’ through out the house
Walking in the yard makes me remember
playing “hide and seek” with you
As it gets colder I’ll miss you curling up in my arms late at night
I catch myself saving bites for you when i eat out
As I fold towels I remember holding you in my arms after bath time, the same arms you died in
Your life was too short, but you gave so much to those that knew you
you’ll be the last pet I have, after Max and May and now you, I feel I have supplied enough angels to heaven………..watch for me at the gate
Still thinking of you
