My Katie 💔
I still look for you my sweet girl,
In all your favourite sleeping places,
I see a shadow and I think it might be you,
I think I hear you ringing your bells
Or scratching on the door,
I can still feel the softness of your fur,
Your doggie scent still surrounds me,
Your toys are scattered here and there,
Your treats still fill my cupboards,
Your cozy coats hang in the closet….
Waiting for you to come home….
My heart is empty, our home is strangely silent,
Though you barely made a peep,
For fourteen years your soft paws made barely a sound on the floor,
But I knew you were there,
Your big bright eyes melted my heart,
Your love brought joy to everyone you met,
Licks and love, more licks and more love,
You were generous with your love,
You were a bright light in the lives of so many
Who needed you….your Grammas and Grampas,
The children loved you ….and grew up with you,
We needed you too.
How can one little being , so small,
Give so much love to the world,
Surely you were an Angel …a gift from heaven,
And now I know that in truth,
You really have gone home.Â
Your Earthly work is done sweet Katie.
We will miss you forever, our sweet girl ….our Katie 💔

Katie …. May 7th, 2009 to August 27th , 2023
