"For a Friend"
by Al Shelton
There is nothing quite so sad
for those of us that know
just what it's like to lose a pet
how hard to just let go
Never again to feel that love
and warmth you held so dear
though they're gone, rest assured
their love remains quite near
The many snapshots which you've saved
and the ones in mind and heart
will help you relive happy times
before you had to part
You'll feel that brush against your legs
or, maybe, hear them cry
it's just their way of telling you
they'll always be nearby
And one day, when you're cleaning
you'll find their favorite toy
instead of letting tears escape
make this a time of joy
To revel in their memory
remembering times of past
for if you keep them close at heart
their love will last and last
Right now, it must surely seem
your world is tinted gray
the void your friend has left for you
decreases day-by-day
The love and friendship you two shared
is strong, just as before
just like the memories you both made
today... and evermore!
