Your little paws left us, As you headed off too soon, Before we could say goodbye, You had been inhumed. *** We watched you grow, Like a precocious child, You pushed the limits, So young and wild. *** Without warning, You set off on your journey, Across the rainbow bridge, Without care or worry. *** And we must stay here, Left behind when you went, With our memories of you, We have wept. *** Over the bridge you went, Out of life and time, To the undying world, May we meet again sometime.
