My Dear Darling Holly,

Oh Holly you were the best little girl I could have ever asked for, you were my best friend and you never failed to make my face light up when I saw you. You were so sweet and everybody loved you. You became sick so quickly and I am still coming to terms with my terrible loss. I will miss you desperately and can't wait for the day we meet again; you will be the first I'll come looking for I promise. I will love you forever as you have my heart.
Although I cannot hold you - I will never let you go - You're in my heart forever - Because I love you so
Reunited with Vic, together forever
Mummy

I miss you

I miss you every day, my friend
No one will know how much
Your ever lasting love for me
No human love can touch.

You never doubted me, my friend
Nor cared about my mood
Your tail wagged, no matter what
All you needed, was your food.

Wait for me, wherever you are
And one day, I hope to be
Together with you, my very best friend
In a place, where we both are free.

A letter to Holly

My darling Holly
By now you will have your dear companion Jake with you, he passed away on Wednesday 4th May. I know you and Vic will look after him and keep him safe. All 3 of you are now together and will remain so for eternity.
When my time here on earth is up I will come and join you all, until that day rest in peace my dears.

All my love
Mum

Holly 2 Years today

Dear Holly,
Thank you for allowing me to be part of your life for the past 10 years. You were the kindest, most placid dog I have ever known. Now that you have sadly gone, there is the largest hole in my life that will never be filled. I will never forget you and never stop loving you. I know that you are now in heaven and that someday we will be reunited, until that day, rest in peace my darling Holly.
Good bye my sweet, beautiful angel. Take care of yourself until we meet again. I will always love you.
Mum
♥ I Miss You ♥

Another year without you
Tears flow – within this broken heart of mine
I am never complete
A shadow of my former self
You went to the Garden of Paradise this day, that year
I should be happy for you, but I wish you were here so much
And all I can do is cry.
Each day I think about you
And realise you have gone,
I can't explain the emptiness
That life has now become.
They say that time's a healer,
But I’m not too sure,
For every time I think of you
I miss you more and more.
If I could have a lifetime wish a dream that would true
I'd pray to God with all my heart for yesterday and you
A thousand words can’t bring you back I know because I've tried
And neither will a million tears I know because I've cried
You left behind a broken heart and happy memories too
But it’s not the memories that are wanted it is simply you

It Will Be......

"Just Another Year"

As the clock, counts down to midnight
A new year will begin
And fireworks will light the skies
To help welcome it in

•:*:• ☆

The people will be full of joy
They'll all sing Auld Lang Syne
But I won't sing along with them
I really won't this time

•:*:• ☆

But I will stop and think of you
And wish that you where here
Then blow a kiss up to the sky
As I start another year

•:*:• ☆

With memories so fond of you
And all the love you shared
You'll always be a part of me
In my heart, You're always there.

God Bless You

Christmas Without My Dog

The tree is all trimmed.
The gifts are all wrapped.
The hymns are all sung,
And the travel plans mapped.

And still there's a sadness
That lies in your heart,
For a dog that was lost
And a love now apart.

A stocking is missing,
With toys and a treat.
A lap is now empty,
A space at your feet.

Yet remember this season
God's small gift to you,
Wonderful memories
To treasure life through.

♥ Sweet Dreams ♥

Peacefully, sleep comes to a dear beloved heart.
Quietly, I understand the time has come to part.
Tenderly, the love shines on ...a never-ending light.
Gratefully, I feel its warmth and say, "Sweet dreams, good-night."

MY MEMORIES OF YOU

My memories of you will last forever
I remember all the good times
That we shared together
I think of you with beauty and grace
And I know that you are safe
In a better place
I did not want to say goodbye
For now I'm so alone
And I sit here and cry

My memories of you I promise to keep
I shall try and be strong
And try not to weep
I know you are all around me
Night and day
And in my heart you will always stay

My memories of you I shall treasure
I will hold them close to my broken heart
I still love you now
Like I did from the start

My memories of you smother me with love
For you are my precious angel
In heaven above

In Loving Memory of Holly

Poem for Dog Lovers

Hello. I've been expecting you for quite some time.
Here, come sit beside us for awhile.
and let me tell you about this old friend of mine.
She might look tattered or maybe old
But I won't say goodbye until you've been told.
She had the brightest eyes I had ever seen,
And wore a beautiful fur coat that would out shine a queen.
She was never prissy but walked with an aire
And oh so polite, you could take her most anywhere.
She could run like the wind and could catch anything she chased
But she protected and sat with me when I had problems to face.
You could not find a friend nearly so dear.
Because no matter the trouble she always stayed near...
She has never asked for much from me;
Just to love and respect her and I think you'll agree.
To give her a good meal plus a nice warm bed is not much to ask;
When she has given me all her love and to her this was no task.
Now I understand you have a schedule to keep.
But I have a small favour before she nods off to sleep.
Please fold your wings around her and let her feel young while in no pain;
Dear Guardian Angel of Pets,
please keep her safe and happy until I see her again.

SWEET DREAMS

**** SWEET DREAMS HOLLY****



Sweet dreams are all I have of you,
They're all you left behind,
Those cherished, lovely memories,
Never again to find.

On earth you were so wonderful,
No furry could I compare
To all the love you gave to me,
You were wonderful, so rare.

Sweet dreams they keep me going
Through the long and lonely nights
How I wish that I could hug you
Here and squeeze you oh so tight.

If I could walk to Heaven,
To see you every day
Just know I'd never want to leave,
I know I'd long to stay.

We parted here on earth my friend
As God's will shall be done,
My dreams will become reality
When once more we'll be one.

I will love you for eternity,
Forever and some more,
Because you were the sweetest furry,
The kindest and most pure.

If Heaven's full of Angels,
Like you were here on earth,
I thank the Lord for lending you,
For giving me your birth,

One day my friend I'll see you there,
So please look out for me,
You'll see my smile so wide
Before you see my spirit free.

God takes the sweetest Angels first,
This we know is true,
For he came, looked around
And decided to choose you.
