"My sunshine doesn't come from the skies,
It comes from the love in my dog's eyes." (Unknown Poet)
Patch, well, he was my best friend. The whole family's best friend actually. A truly wonderful dog,
and very much missed to this day.
He didn't have the best start in life, and 2 years of the treatment he had had prior to coming to us
he would be forgiven for not trusting another human again. He came to us in odd circumstances, but
it was definitely fate, and we were so lucky to share 10 wonderful years with him.
Patch was nearly human, I swear. He totally knew what you were saying to him, if you said "excuse
me" when he was laying in front of the cupboard you needed to get into, he'd get up instantly.
Keeping Dad company on the phone, lying at his feet, and when the conversation ended and Dad said
"Bye", he stood up before Dad did, as he knew the call was over.
Another level of understanding from our Patch.
So gentle was he, that when one of our hamsters escaped and ran across the floor, he came into the
living room to find us, and whined so we would follow him - only to find the hamster loose and
unharmed. An amazing dog.
You got the funeral you deserved sweetie, and the pet cemetary is so peaceful. Your grave is in the
perfect location, under a beautiful tree.
Til we meet again little man. Wait for us at the Rainbow Bridge. xxx
(Added January '09)
Well sweetie, I wanted to write more about our special boy. What about Squawk the budgie, who used
to imitate Dad's horn on his bike? You knew Dad always sounded the horn when he got home from work,
and rushed to the door to greet him...but Squawk teased you a lot and you thought it was Dad when it
wasn't!
You were there when I came home from school, and knew if I had not had a good day, your big brown
eyes were so comforting. When I started working, you were still there, after a hard day.
You were always there Patch, and we didn't want you to go, not ever. You were like a little old man
in your later years, started turning grey and that was so cute. You were still our scruffy little
man though, and always will be. xxx
♥♥♥♥♥ Beyond the Rainbow ♥♥♥♥♥
As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.
I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.
I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.
For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.

♥♥♥ Have You A Dog In Heaven? ♥♥♥
Have you a dog in Heaven, Lord?
And do you pat its head?
Does he sit up and beg each night
Before he goes to bed?
Does he look up with shining eyes
When he sees Your smiling face?
Does he wag his stubby little tail
When he wants to run a race?
Have You a dog in Heaven, Lord?
Is there room for just one more?
Cause my little dog died today;
He'll be waiting at Your door.
Please take him into Heaven, Lord.
And keep him there for me,
Just feed him, pet him, love him, Lord,
Thats all he'll ask of Thee.
♥♥♥Our Memories Of You♥♥♥
(Written by Emma Doe)
Yesterday's gone
But we'll never forget-
We loved you a lifetime,
We love you yet.
A wish up to heaven
We fondly send-
Dear Patch, we remember-
Our darling, best friend.
Yesterday holds
Sweet memories of you-
Big soft, brown eyes,
Heart honest and true.
Your love and your loyalty
So freely you gave-
These memories of you
We share and save.
When Snowy, our hamster,
Nearly ran away,
You came to her rescue
And saved the day.
You took yourself up
To the park for a walk-
You barked at the horn,
But it was only Squawk!
You stood boldly by us,
You saw us through cares-
Yet you whimpered at thunder
And hid on the stairs!
You were our hero,
You came to our call-
If dogs are best friends,
You're the best of all.
Thank God for memories,
If memories are you-
That's all we have left
Our dear friend, so true!

The Promise
To each and every faithful friend
With whom we stayed until the end
Rest in peace while we explain
That one day we will meet again
If we were not there and so did fail
To see the last wag of your tail
Our love for you will never wane
Forgive us, please, when we meet again
We were with your presence blessed
Your ample heart, which won the quest
For beauty, flowing in your vein
Will see the day we meet again
You gave us many happy years
Departing, with us crying tears
We pray that you were without pain
And promise that we will meet again
Greater friends we will not make
You are they that give not take
Perchance we have some more to gain
Until the day we meet again
When that day comes and we all meet
May you once more rise to your feet
To walk with us in sun not rain
And fulfil the promise to meet again
M. C. Kiff
Love You More
Do I love you
to the moon and back?
No I love you
more than that
I love you to the desert sands
the mountains, stars
the planets and
I love you to the deepest sea
and deeper still
through history
Before beyond I love you then
I love you now
I’ll love you when
The sun’s gone out
the moon’s gone home
and all the stars are fully grown
When I no longer say these words
I’ll give them to the wind, the birds
so that they will still be heard
I love you

~ The Soul of a Dog ~
My playful dog would sneak up as I slept
Then my face he would swab with his tongue
Though most of his loyal exploits and faith
And his acts of pure love went unsung.
What better example of love can be found
Than the love of a true faithful pet
A dog whose consistent attention to you
Leaves memories you never can forget
A dog unrequited love will you give
Your affection he never will spurn.
Responsive he'll be to your every command
And will nothing expect in return.
He'll accept all affection that's directed his way
But content if he just can be near.
Yet always he hopes you will reach out your hand
And scratch behind both of his ears.
All of my dogs lived a rich and full life
Till death finally tallied its toll,
But ere they departed, I looked in their eyes
And I swear that each dog had a soul.

Our Angels all have fireworks..

DREAMS
Dreams are where you relive memories,
a special time gone forever.
Dreams can take you to far away places,
that are only there while you sleep.
Dreams can make you smile or make you cry,
but when you wake you must say good-bye.
Dreamers can be what they want to be.
Dreamers are you and me.
Dreams are where you can see things,
that can no-longer be.
Dreams can take me to you,
no-matter where you are.
Dreams can make me smile or make me cry,
I never want to wake if I have to say good-bye.
Dreams can let me see you,
To touch you and hold you.
That's the only time I can be with you.
That's all I have left of you.
But I'll see you tonight in my dreams.
by Leslie D. Green
Don't Cry
Don't cry I'm only sleeping
Don't think that I'm not there
I can see you as you cry
As I sit on my rainbow stairs.
God told me that He needed me
And He only takes the best
And I love it here on my rainbow
I can now enjoy the rest.
I watch you when you sleep
And I am there every day
Cant you feel me? I am here
And it will always be this way.
I want to see you laughing
And I want to see you move on
I know you loved me dearly
Remember I'm here, I'm not gone.

Remember Me
Remember me when roses bloom
And Spring returns again ---
For I am ever present in your midst
In the dawn and in the wind ---
You mustn't think I've gone away
For good - Instead remember me
The way I was in better days
The way it used to be ----
Remember me as I am now
Alive, at peace, and free ---
There is no place for sorrows past
Is just a lost memory ----
For life derives its' purest joy
In living day to day ---
Follow what I've taught you
And REMEMBER ME, this way .....
