Poem for "Gunnie" - Deceased June 2014
The Best Dog of All
Loving and loyal,
A friend through and through,
How in the world can I
live without you?
*
I've known you since you
Were just a scrappy little pup.
Fighting to survive,
And you never gave up.
*
I watched you grow into a
beautiful canine friend.
Back in those days,
I could not imagine this end.
*
But now it is all over,
And you're truly gone.
Somehow I'll find a way
To try to carry on.
*
Perhaps one day I'll find
A new puppy who,
Will become my dear friend,
But he'll never replace you.
*
I'll keep your little photo
hung up on my wall,
And I'll always remember you
As the very best dog of all.
