Dogs in heaven

You're gone so suddenly
and it's not fair
All I can do is
look out the window and stair.
Flashes in my head
of your big brown eyes
and I can't help but ask
Why him? WHY?!
Will we meet again?
Did you know you're loved?
Are you now watching,
on high, from above?
This is a test
to teach forgiveness.
But the great love you gave,
I will always miss.
I pray to know
we'll meet in the end.
I mean, Why wouldn't we?
You're man's best friend.
Please give me strength
to tell my little girl,
that her 4-legged friend
has left this world.


I know this is cheesy, but I've always dealt with things by writing. It's been years so I'm a little rusty but it made me feel better.

Saber,
I hope you know how much we love you. I have never cried for a dog in my life. You were the best friend and companion we could have ever wanted. I miss you already. I believe the Lord sends animals as companions and so I have to believe that we will meet again. You're a part of our family and we love you like a son. I'm sorry for getting frustrated with you when you ate my shoes. I thank you for the laughs when you learned to open doors you shouldn't. I mean come on, a sliding glass door?! How is that even possible?! I'm sorry if you think there is more we could have done for you. I wish you could talk to tell us it was ok. I wish you could have told us that you loved us and would see us again. I saw love in your eyes and I know you knew you were part of our family. So if you're up there, please tell Heavenly Father to send some comfort our way. Cause I could use it right about now.
