In Memory
I live among God’s creatures now, in the heavens of your mind
So do not grieve for me, my friend for I am with my kind.
My collar is a rainbow’s hue, my leash a shooting star
My boundaries are the Milky Way where I sparkle from afar.
I nap the day on a snowy cloud, gentle breezes rocking me
And dream the dreams of Earthlings and how it used to be.
The trees are full of liver treats and tennis balls abound
And Milk bones line the walkways just waiting to be found
I drink from waters laced with gold my world a beauty to behold
And wise old dogs do form my pride to amble at my very side
At night I sleep in an angel’s arms, her wings protecting me
And moonbeams dance about us as stardust falls on thee
So when your life on earth is spent, and you stand at Heaven’s gate
Have no fear of loneliness for here, you know I wait
