Memorial Page

In rescue we take in many injured and ill dogs that have a limited time on this earth. We keep them as our own until the day they leave us.

This page is dedicated to these babies, our much loved Maltese rescues that have crossed the bridge and are now in Heaven....

I'm Still Here

by:

I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep.

I whispered to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."

I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me.

I was with you at the shops today, your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.

I was with you at my grave today, you tend it with such care.
I want to reassure you that I'm not lying there.

I walked with you towards the house as you fumbled for your key,
I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "It's me."

You looked so very tired and sank into a chair,
I tried so hard to let you know that I was standing there.

I am always where you are, here with you everyday,
I wish that I could tell you that "I never went away."

You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
In the stillness of that evening you could feel me close to you.

The day is over..I smile and watch you yawning,
And say, "Good night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."

And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand side by side.

I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see,
Be patient, live your journey out...then come home to be with me
