what a lovely poem -thank you for posting - despite the fact that it made me cry-lots!!

We lost our much loved Rottie recently - he was a rescue and that made him all the more special, even though we had him for only a short precious time. I actually had a portrait of his face tattoed on my thigh as I know he will ALWAYS be by my side. Two weeks ago we took on another rescue Rott - a pup and he is just delightful. It helps having him around- he will never replace the one we lost - but we love him in honour of our big lad!

That is such a beautiful poem!! I run a website that creates memorial websites for much loved and missed pets, but your poem is the most beautiful and touching that I've heard!

Thank you for this poem. I am literally in tears; we lost my dog last night, he was thirteen, I just don't know what to do without him.

I feel for you so much. I lost my darling cat on Monday quite unexpectedly and I feel the same. I miss her so much.

I lost my beautiful St Bernard dog 3 days ago and now I've read your poem I can't stop crying.

Aww that was so sad, made me cry.
Lovely poem.
I still miss my little baby even though we lost Tiny 6th march aged 17, i still miss him so much and i think of him every day. This peom made me wonder maybe he isnt as far away as i think.

A lovely poem. It's all so raw for me (just hours after a very rapid decline), but having lost a pet as a child, I know the pain never really leaves, you just learn to move on.

I do believe that the spirit lives on and hope we all get to feel the presence of our loved ones at some time, I'm sure they'll still be around, albeit from the other side.
