Feeling
The partnership is over,
we have gone our separate ways.
One of us has left;
the other battles through the days.
All those times together
for more than sixteen years,
hold well-set memories;
the vision never disappears.
The pleasure you gave me,
and to many others too,
is why your picture on our wall
is to remind us all that you,
will never be forgotten,
from the day our sadness grew,
knowing that the end was nigh,
and there’s nothing we could do.
I know that your soul now free,
still watches our front door,
and even though our visitors,
can’t hear you barking any more,
they feel there’s someone missing
as we do every single day,
yet knowing life must still go on,
this feeling never goes away.
