A Tone for the Bones

To my dear Angel,

If I could sing a song,

Straight into your bones,

I would find the perfect tone,

For all the love you shown me,

So many precious memories,

Keep you alive within me,

Many more are yet to be,

As we create Eternally.

If I could sing the tone,

Straight into your bones,

filling you with what I've known,

You'd never leave me alone,

And know how much I've grown,

You're on loan to help me roam,

And you'll need to go back home,

It's okay I can do this on my own.

Singing all different tones,

I hope it frees pain from the bones,

I'll keep singing till you have to go,

Thanking you for the love you show,

And when we go our separate ways,

I hope you get to ride the sunrays,

Until one day you greet me again,

My four legged furry friend,

Friendship

    aw; so beautiful and so appropriate for the loss of the loved pet.
