rowey Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 This from Druimmuir Spaniels website. It's Brilliant. Hope she doesn't mind me posting it IN MEMORY OF THOSE WE HAVE LOVED AND LOST :- If it should be that I grow frail and weak And pain should keep me from my sleep, Then will you do what must be done, For this -- the last battle -- can't be won. You will be sad I understand, But don't let grief then stay your hand, For on this day, more than the rest, Your love and friendship must stand the test. We have had so many happy years, You wouldn't want me to suffer so. When the time comes, please, let me go. Take me to where to my needs they'll tend, Only, stay with me till the end And hold me firm and speak to me Until my eyes no longer see. I know in time you will agree It is a kindness you do to me. Although my tail its last has waved, From pain and suffering I have been saved. Don't grieve that it must be you Who has to decide this thing to do; We've been so close -- we two -- these years, Don't let your heart hold any tears.

Tim Kelly Posted February 10, 2011 Report Share Posted February 10, 2011 You have my sympathies. Had to bury my 13 1/2 year old springer a couple of weeks ago. No fun is it. Don't want too many days like that thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

243ack Posted February 15, 2011 Report Share Posted February 15, 2011 Vet came last night. 6.30. Your poem has been a help. Poor old Kip, such a well loved old chap. I miss him bitterly. Can't believe he won't be retrieving for me anymore. Good bye Old Friend. Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
