A Puppy

I'll lend to you for a little while
A puppy boy, God said,
For you to love him while he lives,
And mourn for when he's dead.
Maybe for twelve or fourteen years
For only two or three,
But will you, 'till I call him back,
Take care of him for me?

He'll bring his charm to
gladden you,
And should his stay be brief,
You'll always have his memories
as solace for your grief.
I cannot promise he will stay,
since all from death return,
But there are lessons taught below
I want this pup to learn

I've looked the whole world over,
in search of teachers true,
And from all the folks that crowd
life's land,
I, have chosen you.
Now will you give him all your
love
Nor think the labour vain,
Nor hate me when I come to take
My puppy back again.

I fancied that I hear you say
Dear Lord thy will be done,
For all the joys this pup will bring
the risk of grief I'll run.
I'll shelter him with tenderness
I'll love him while I may,
And for the happiness I've known
Forever grateful stay.

But should you come to call him
back
much sooner than I planned,
I'll face the bitter grief that comes
and try to understand.
If by my love I've managed
Your wishes to achieve,
In memory of him I loved,
to help me when I grieve.

When my faithful friend departs
This great big world of strife,
I'll have another puppy boy
and love him all my life
MEMORIES

They say memories are
golden,
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories
I only wanted you.

A million times I cried
If love alone could have
saved you
You never would have
died.

In life I loved you dearly
in death I love you still
In my heart you hold a
place
no one else could fill.

If tears could build a
stairway
and heartache make a lane
I'd walk the path to
Heaven
and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken
and nothing seems the
same,
But as God calls us back
one by one
the chain will link again.
IN MEMORY OF OUR
FURRY FRIENDS
GONE, BUT NEVER
FORGOTTEN
DUKE SIR MASTER

FOREVER IN MY HEART AND SOUL YOU WILL
ALWAYS BE.
NOT A DAY GOES BY THAT I DON'T LOOK FOR
YOU OR FEEL YOU BY MY SIDE
YOU TOUCHED SO MANY LIVES
WORDS CAN NOT
EXPLAIN MY LOSS,
SO I WILL JUST LET
OUR SONG SAY IT
