Treasured Friend

Treasured Friend

February 17, 2001- January 25, 2012

I lost a treasured friend today,

The great big dog that used to lay

His gentle head upon my knee

And share his silent thoughts with me.

He’ll come no longer to my call,

Retrieve no more his favorite ball

A voice far greater than my own

Has called him to His golden throne.

And though my eyes are filled with tears,

I thank Him for the happy years

He let him spend down here with me

And for his love and loyalty.
