Memories

In his youth,
Full of life,
And energy that surged.

Growing older,
And yet wiser,
But all those years have merged,

Into a
Joyful blur.
All those memories fading fast.

That grateful bark,
And happy whine,
Now that our dearest friend has past.

We’ll miss our
Companion.
Yet he is still here.

Forever kept
Close to our hearts,
The memories of our dog we hold so dear.
