All Good Things

By Barbara Gill

 

I've been the best friend I can be

You've done all you can do for me

So now I cry to help you see

The time has come to set me free.

 

My days here are no longer fun

I long to be where I can run

To grassy fields warmed by the sun

Where Andrew waits for me to come.

 

You cannot bear to say good-by

We feel the same, both you and I

But I have grown so tired and weak

My body yearns for peaceful sleep.

 

They say all good things must end

But Please Remember this my friends

That when my life on earth is thru

My spirit will live on with you.

 

Your loving pet,

Smiley
