To my beloved Boris
I’ll always remember...
how you protected me with your life,
how you never fouled the house, even at the end,
how you were always there for a hug when I needed it most
how you gave me a reason to come home and to live
how I loved you with all my heart, and you always loved me even more.
until we meet again x

There is one best place to bury a dog.
If you bury him in this spot, he will come to you when you call and down the well-remembered path, and to your side again.
And though you call a dozen dogs to heel, they shall not growl at him, nor resent his coming, for he belongs there.
The one best place to bury a good dog is in the heart of his master.

A SILENT TEAR
Just close your eyes, and you will see
All the memories that you have, of me.
Just sit and relax and you will find
I'm really still there, inside your mind.
Don't cry for me, now l am gone,
for I am in the land of song.
There is no pain, there is no fear,
So dry away that silent tear.
Don't think of me in the dark and cold,
For here I am, no longer old.
I'm in that place that's filled with love,
Known to you all as "UP ABOVE",

THE ROSE BEYOND THE WALL
A rose once grew where all could see,
Sheltered beside a garden wall,
And, as the days passed swiftly by,
It spread its branches, straight and tall.
One day, a beam of light shone through
A crevice that had opened wide,
The rose bent gently towards its warmth
Then passed beyond to the other side,
Now, you who deeply feel its loss,
Be comforted, the rose blooms there,
Its beauty even greater now,
Nurtured by Gods own loving care.
