Passing of a Friend
 
Sunlight streams through window pane,
unto a spot on the floor...
Then I remember,
it's where you used to lie,
but now you are no more...
 
Our feet walk down a hall of carpet,
and muted echoes sound...
Then I remember,
it's where your paws
would joyously abound...
 
A bark is heard along the road
and up beyond the hill,
Then I remember,
it can't be yours....
your golden voice is still...
 
But I'll take that vacant spot of floor,
and empty muted hall,
lay them with the absent bark,
and unused dish, along the wall...
 

I'll warp these treasured memories
in a blanket of my love,
and keep them for my loving friend,
until we meet above.
