Doggie Paws
In Memory Of Jessie
Thirteen years of doggie paws moved
outside today.
Inside my heart is breaking,
the Light of my Life –
Jessie, has gone away.
I held her head, kissed her blurry eyes,
and said “I Love You, Girl”
With gentle hands and heavy heart,
I released her soul to God,
crying for her spirit to be free.
Never dreamed it would hurt so much,
Guess I wasn’t thinking much of Me.
But she must be missing something,
she left her paws upon my heart.
Kind reminders of the time we had together,
and how I never wanted her to part.
They tug as fiercely as the shoestrings
she once played with;
the tug of wars together,
the one’s I let her win.
The bones and the toys,
all the things she loved speak
about her passing and I fall apart again.
I said; “I’ll be alright without you,
if you really have to go.
No need for you to fret or worry,
we had our chance to love each other so.”
Our final road together remains yet to be seen
Doggie paws can be so gentle but
the pain they leave in passing is so mean.
I’ll hold them safely in my heart forever Jess….
We miss you baby girl.
