Heaven’s Doggy Door

Heaven’s Doggy Door



My best friend closed his eyes last night

As his head was in my hand

The doctors said he was in pain

And it was hard for him to stand.



The thoughts that scurried through my head

As I cradled him in my arms

Were of his younger puppy years

And oh..his many charms.



Today there was no gentle nudge

With an intense ‘I love you’ gaze

Only a heart that’s filled with tears

Remembering our joy-filled days



But an angel just appeared to me

And he said “You should cry no more

God also loves our canine friends

He’s installed a doggy door” !!
