PAW PRINTS IN MY HEART

You came to me when I knew no love
And engraved your paw prints in my heart.
You left me later for the skies above
And made me wish we didn't part.
You taught me happiness was a treasure
When I was really down
You taught me joy and pleasure
And erased all my frowns,
You went away to help another
and left me a memory.
You flew beyond with a flutter,
And became a history.
You went through the gates,
To a special Rainbow Sky
You went there through three
life giving fates,
Who gave you the wings to fly
I envision you in the misty seas,
Where we used to play.
I imagine us in the gallant breeze,
Beneath warm golden rays.
I made a sacrifice that I thought you'd need,
I let you reach beyond.
I knew your soul would pay me heed,
And continue our precious bond.
I know your wings of translucent white
Will brush away my tears,
And in your highest height,
Watch as my sight then clears.
We were happy before you left
And we are still today,
Since after heaven committed its theft
You enlighten my paths and ways.
You came into my life as swiftly as a dream,
Then just as quick you had to part.
Thoughts only memories you left,
It may seem your tender prints
are on my heart.
