The Last Battle -Poem FROM our Beloved Pets
Just wondered if anyone had come across this. Someone gave me this when I lost my darling Cocker Spaniel Her picci is on my homepage.
The Last Battle
[I]
If it should be that I should grow old and weak
and pain may keep me from my sleep
Then you must do what must be done
For this Last Battle cant be won
You will be sad, I understand
But let not Grief then, stay your hand
you'll not want me to suffer, so;
When my time comes, gently let me go.
We've had so many happy years
What is to come - it holds no fears
Now This day, more than all the rest
Your Love and Devotion must stand the test.
So take me where my needs, they'll tend
Stay with me until the end
Hold me close and talk to me
Until my eyes no longer see.
For I know, you too, in time will see
it is a kindness you do for me
For although my tail, its last has waved
From pain and suffering, Ive been saved.
Dont Grieve, that it must be you
Who must decide this thing to do;
We've been so close we two, these years;
Dont let your heart hold any tears.
In memory of my darling Giddy, and for all our pets,
we will meet again over that bridge.
