RIP Paul O'Grady ❤🐕

So many dogs came to greet me
as I reached the pearly gate.
Some I did not recognise
but still they did await.

It was then I understood
why the angels came
and took me from my bed
although I did not proclaim.

All these angel dogs
and other animals too.
Then I saw the greatest glow,
and God came shining through.

He opened up his arms,
and raised them in the air.
The clouds were full of rainbows
and dogs played everywhere.

God walked toward me
but he did not need to speak.
I knew that I was chosen
because I was unique.

I sat amongst these dogs
yet each licked fresh air.
I wondered what they were doing,
then I saw you all down there.

The dogs were licking tears
of all who I had left behind
although I will always live
in the memories that you find.

J.Boyle.

🙏

I sat beside the river bank,
as I waited for your return.
I only ran off to chase fresh air
us dogs won't ever learn.

I barked for you to hear,
I even sniffed your Scent,
but still I could not find you,
I wondered where you went.

I waited for so long,
and I waited with such hope.
I kept following your trail,
but it ended at the slope.

I heard voices call your name,
but there was no one there,
yet I could hear them call,
shouting from a chair.

I was glad when someone came.
but I wished it had been you.
I still wait beside the door,
wishing you would come through.
Willow. xx
