Array ( [sid] => 35234 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Lady [time] => 2004-02-16 20:00:39 [hometext] => I wrote this poem about Lady when she was eight years old. She lived almost ten more years. She was just six months old when I got her and it tore me apart when she passed on. [bodytext] => ah, there is such beauty in
lady's soft sweet eyes
i swear God take me
if it isn't so
i see in them a bit of heaven
a fleeting glimpse of You

but God if there's no heaven
(although i doubt
that this could be)
then let me go
where lady goes when
her days on earth are through

it's true i've loved her
more than most of
the people i have known
but she's been more true
than my truest friend
and a comfort through the years

i never thought a dog
could be all that
she's been to me
so, i pray dear Lord
take everything from me
but leave me my sweet lady

her fur is still
so soft to the touch
although she's getting
on in years no one
can tell she's aged so well
she's lived a dozen years

ah,lady has given me such pleasure
i can't imagine us a part
so the day that you
must take her, Lord
will be the day that
my heart breaks
