Ode to Dac
©Wendy P

Goodbye my beautiful boy

I sit and watch you frolicking in the water

Thinking about all the things we have shared

I want you to know how much joy you have given me

Thirteen years of pure happiness

The way you look at me with your big brown eyes

The way your tail wags with happiness

The good and bad times we have shared

My heart breaks

Knowing this is the last time you will get to enjoy your favourite thing

Home we go and I feed you anything you desire then the time has come

You look at me with those big brown eyes,
Snore a little and your eyes gently close

You are gone from me, no more play times, swims or walkies for us no more

But you are in my heart forevermore

Goodbye my best friend we will meet again…….

Beloved Dacca
RIP Friday 18th February 2005

Run (in memory of Dacca)
© Jason Lindsay

Run my friend, run. ...

Run amongst the heavens
As far as you can go,
You’ve no more limitations
As those you did below.

Swim my friend, swim. ...

Swim throughout the Universe,
As you’ve never swum before:
For in Gods very ocean,
There are no petty laws.

Sleep my friend, sleep. ...

Sleep atop a cushioned cloud,
Rather ground so hard,
Wake for nothing dear friend:
You’re no longer on guard.

Be free my friend, be free. ...

Be free of limitations,
Of your final aching pain:
Burdons placed upon your life,
That shall never be again.

Remember my friend, remember. …

Remember that I love you,
Every passing day;
The door is always open friend,
Should you lose your way

Dacca
RIP my friend
