Your Pets in Heaven
By Ken D. Conover
To have loved and then said farewell is better than to have never loved
at all. For all of the times that you have stooped and touched my head, fed
me my favorite treat and returned the love that I so unconditionally gave to
you. For all the care that you gave to me so unselfishly - for all these
things I am grateful and thankful.
I ask that you not grieve for the loss, but rejoice in the fact that we
lived, loved and touched each other's lives. My life was fuller because you
were there, not as a master/owner, but as my FRIEND.
Today I am as I was in my youth. The grass is always green, butterflies
flit among the flowers, and the sun shines gently down upon all of God's
creatures. I can run, jump, play, and do all of the things that I did in my
youth. There is no sickness, no aching joints, no regrets, and no aging.
We await the arrival of our lifelong companions and know that
togetherness is forever. You live in our hearts as we do in yours.
Companions such as you are so rare and unique. Don't hold the love that you
have within yourself. Give it to another like me, and then I will live
forever. Love never really dies, and you are loved and missed as surely as
we are.

The Lord watch between me and thee,
while we are absent, one from the other.
