The Life of a Good Dog Named Fayeroe

Happy Valentine's Day From Fayedy
I saw you standing there,
So young and yet so brave.
Your stubby tail wagging like mad,
The smile on your face was a mile wide.
I paid the money that the man wanted,
Loaded you into the truck and took you home.
You went into my overall's pocket,
Wiggling and giggling all the way.
You grew big and strong.
I never felt afraid or alone with you.
You guarded even though you were
wounded. You guarded your mom
when things were the worst.
You are the best.
We had 7 wonderful years together.
Then one night a year ago you got your wings and
left your earthly home.
So soon, too soon.
I know your heart, Fayeroe and I know
you want me to go on and be strong,
just as you were.
I'm trying, I'm trying.
