A
Gift Of Paws
(Terri
Onorato)
In the
silent Christmas morning my
heart begins to
ache as
feelings from the day you left dawn
slowly with daybreak.
I say a
prayer of grateful thanks for
the life that I've been blessed
and
ask for strength so that I might through
pain find happiness.
God sent
you as a present though
not received on Christmas day,
a gift of paws that reached down deep and
stole my heart away.
Tears are
part of healing, each
one shed will ease the pain, so
that memories will come to mind in
a most dynamic, ardent way.
I doubt
that you would want me to
spend this day in tears.
I
know you'd rather see me smile as
from atop a cloud you peer.
Though a
time or two I've lost my way since
the Keeper called you Home,
now
faith restored by angel paws will
never come undone. A
loving aura fills the sky as
you rest on clouds of fleece,
and
angels gently tuck you in,
may
you sleep in heavenly peace.
