In memory of my much loved and missed dogs Sandy and Scamp who I lost this year and also Binker,Brandy,Binkie and Bracken who had gone before them.
Also for all of you who have lost much loved pets.
CHRISTMAS WITHOUT MY DOG
The tree is all trimmed,
The gifts are all wrapped,
The hymns are all sung
And the travel plans mapped.
And still there’s a sadness
That lies in your heart,
For a dog that was lost
And a love now apart.
A stocking is missing,
With toys and a treat
A lap now is empty,
A space at your feet.
Yet remember this season
God’s small gift to you,
Wonderful memories
To treasure life through.
