Footprints On The Carpet

Footprints On The Carpet

Those little spots you used to make, while running for your ball;

Those footprints on the carpet, I miss them most of all!

For they all have disappeared now, the rug’s so very bare;

No more little indentations, for you’re no longer there!

I wish I had an arm so strong, that I could throw your ball up to the sky;

And no matter where you now are living, it would get there very high!

So then you could retrieve it, and bring it down to me;

I’d take it from your little mouth, and so happy would I be!

Then maybe I’d see your footprints, in the clouds so high above;

And they’d become just like my carpet, with little etchings of your love!

For the ball I think you felt was, as my heart you had to chase;

And because we shared the perfect love, after it you’d race!

So now I’ve got a new idea, since my arm has not the strength;

I’ll toss you up my lonely soul, that will go to any lengths!

To find you there, then reunite, with yours that’s lonely too;

Then the footprints on the carpet, will be in my soul, that now is back with you!

Hi sweetie,

What a beautiful tribute to a very much loved and special member of your family sweetie. You have done him proud and I know he`ll love it and he`ll always be with his mummy and daddy and giving you both his love and affection in spirit and simply filling your souls with adoration and love.

We have two dogs, a Staffordshire Bull Terrier called Nero who is a real softy and a Dogue de Bordeaux called Ellwood George, he`s the same as the dog in the Tom Hanks film Turner and Hooch. He weighs 22st, and he`s not over weight either! and is 6ft 4inches tall when he stands on his hind legs and puts his front paws on your shoulders and demands a cuddle. When he wants a cuddle you don`t have much choice in the matter and considering that I`m only 5ft tall it`s fun when he does it.

Both of them are my babies and I adore them to pieces. You can see a picture of him on my face book page and his massive head compared to mine. He is the most lovable and gentle loving soul you could ever wish for and he`s adored by everyone who meets him and he loves all the attention they give him.

Thank you for sharing such a special love through your superb and loving talent and making people appreciate the love and devotion that we are so lucky to get from all our pets. Actually I`m not keen on the word pet, I look on my dogs as my children because I love and respect them so much and the love that they give to me is so special and precious.

God bless and keep you safe sweetie

G xx
