As the years go by

As the years go by

                                Time seemly sits still

Not feeling older

                                White grows stronger

So does time

                                As it flies by

Like slow motion

                                A new jet

                                                Somehow shows age

Then rust

I do not fear growing old

                                Aging or dying

I fear you leaving me behind

                                Not enjoying long walks with you

                                                How do I enjoy those walks without you

I like that the past nine or so years

                We are bonded together                            

                                Like a bird needs her wings

You are my wing girl

                Heartbreak fills me

Knowing that you’re in pain

                                Not showing

Rarely crying out

I know

                I KNOW

                I SEE YOU

I FEEL YOUR       

                Every slow movement

Time moving even slower

                                As we grow older

Slow to sit

                Slower to run

Slow to jump on the couth

                You don’t seem to visit me in bed anymore

I guess it is too high

                now that time is taking the color from your fur

I will by a bed that touches the floor

                I want you near me

Until the time has come                

                When all you pain is done

Mine has only begun

                I love you

I will keep you strong until

                Until you tell me, “mommy it is time

And I will wait on the other side

                The rainbow called

And I want to play

                                Run

                                                Jump

                                                                All day”

I will cry

                Missing you and dying on the inside

I will say, “Baby go play

                                Run run run

Don’t stop

                Have all your fun

                                I will come find you

When my time here is done

                Play run and have fun

                                       When my time here is done
I will find you and together
                             we will have fun
                                             I LOVE YOU."

Watching Them Play

 

Watch them play

All day

See them run

Jump

Roll around

Making strange sounds

Smiles that go wider and wider

So wide

Like the Grand Canyon earthly smile

Tongues that hang low

 Like they plan to escape              

From the Grand Canyons hold

Making me smile

Mouths open so wide

I see happy hearts

Theirs and mine

We are one of a kind

It never gets old

Watching them play

All day

Pet Pal Doggy - Playtime

                                                            

This is what dogs were meant to do; play, love, have fun and maybe even entertain us a little :-)

What Changed?

I don’t understand

                I was so small

                                                                                I was happy

We had fun

                                                                                Under the sun

                                                                                                The moon

                                                                                                                And the stars

We were never far from each other

                                                                                Always had time for kisses and hugs

Now I noticed a change

                                                                                We are older

You got busier

                                                                                You’re too busy to offer me

                                                                                                The time as you did before

I don’t know what

                or why you changed

                                You smell the same

                                                                                I still love spending time with you

Just share your time

                Spare a few minutes

                                Of love and care

                                                                                I want to share the love

                                                                                                                The love that we had shared before

Today you forgot to feed me

Today you forgot to feed me

                                                                Its okay

My water bowl is dry

                                                                All gone

                                                                                Its okay

Why have you forgotten me?

                                                                I am always here for you

Today when you put me outside

You forgot to let me back in

                                                                I cried, staring at the door

                                                                Still HUNGRY

                                                                                And THIRSTY     

                                                                                                Now all ALONE 

                                                                I cried

You left me

                One day turns to three

                                                                Scared and alone

When will you came home

                And let me in

                                                                It’s okay

                                                                I am always here for you

So much barking

                In this strange place

So much noise

Cold floors                                         

                                                                I got food and water today

Where are you

                                Gone again

                                                                Once you loved me

                                                                                Now left me

                                                                                                in a scary cage

Watching

                Waiting

                                You never came

                                                                After all we grew up together   

                                                                                                We grew old together

You got colder

                As we got older

                                                                Its okay

                                                                I was always there for you

Confused

                Alone

                                I wait

three days more

                                two

                                                one

                                                                None    

No more days

                Will I be allowed to wait

                                                                For you

No more

                                Days

                                                                LEFT

Pets are a commitment from day one to the bitter end. They should never suffer from a human’s selfish need for not sparing the time to care for them in their golden years. Love is for life and so are our pets. Have you ever seen a dog cry? I have, I have seen tears ROLL down their eyes, it broke my heart. Animals love wholly and completely; they don’t play with your emotions or try and deceive you. They will not try to use you or abuse you; our pets only want to LOVE us completely and wholly.

Have you ever seen a dog that suffered from a broken heart, I have, and about three weeks later he died. I can only imagine that it was due to his broken heart.

Please don’t dump your pets at a kill shelter.

Please don’t put them on Craig’s list.

Please love you pet or don’t get one to start with, if you can not commit.
