MISSING YOU FROM HEAVEN-2:

I was just a small puppy when you were mere babe,

I followed everywhere & together, joyfully we played,

But my time came to leave you & to bid you goodbye,

Now I´ll always be your guardian, so please do not cry.

 

I now watch you from heaven, as you touch my old lead,

Your tears on my frayed collar, tumble down in soft beads,

And in your terrible sadness, I feel you patting my old head,

You´re still stroking my fur, yet knowing that I am dead.

 

Remember, when you tossed me a stick & old rubber ball?

You still hear my paws padding, down long midnight hall,

You call out my name & in spirit; I lick away your sad tears,

One day we shall meet again, even, if I have to wait years.
