My Stay Was Too Brief

I retired from the breeding world in August of 2007,
Hoping to find a Mom and Dad that would make me feel like I was in heaven.

When I visited the doctor the news was not good,
For I had incurable cancer and Mom said she would fix it if she could.

I remained with Mom and Dad for over two glorious years,
Being cuddled, loved and constantly told that I was so dear.

My life was filled with so much joy day after day,
I kept praying to God that I could stay.

I was blessed to have lived for a few years,
For my life was filled with so much love and cheer.

I start my journey now to a better place,
And will patiently wait to once again see Mom’s smiling face.
