GOODBYE
. . . Although my tail its last has waved,
from pain and suffering, I’ve been saved.
Please do not grieve—it must be you
who had this painful thing to do.
We’ve been so close,
we two these years,
don’t let your heart hold back its tears.
LET ME GO
Thank you so for loving me. You know I love you, too.
That’s why it’s hard to say goodbye and end this life with you.
Please hold me now, just one more time, and let me hear you say,
Because you care so much for me, you’ll let me go today.
A Dog’s Plea
Please see that my trusting life is taken gently.
I shall leave this earth
knowing with the last breath I draw
that my fate was always best and safest
in your loving hands.
