It has been a tough two months since I lost my pup, my companion, my best friend. This short poem is something that I recite out loud often, to remind myself that Finnegan made it to heaven safely, he's okay and he will wait for me. If you're struggling from loss, read this - it warms your heart.
I got to the gate of Heaven yesterday after we said goodbye.
I began to miss you terribly, because I heard you cry.
Suddenly, here was an angel and she asked me to enter Heaven's gate.
I asked her if I could stay outside for someone who'd be late.
I wouldn't make much noise you see, I wouldn't bark or howl.
I'll only wait here patiently and eat all my pizza.
The angel said I could stay right here and wait for you to come.
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven if I went alone.
So I'll wait right here, you take your time, but keep me in your heart.
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven, without you to warm my heart.
