"We have not to gain his confidence or his friendship.
He is born our friend; while his eyes are still closed,
already he believes in us, even before his birth
he has given himself to man..."
~ Maurice Materlinck

A Shepherds Prayer

I live among God's creatures now
In the heavens of your mind
So do not grieve for me, my friend
As I am with my own kind

My collar is a Rainbow's hue
My leash a shooting star
My boundaries are the Milky Way
where I sparkle from afar

There are no pens or kennels here
For I am not confined
But free to roam God's heavens
Among my canine kind

The trees are full of liver treats
And tennis balls abound
And Milk bones line the walking ways
Just waiting to be found

I drink from waters laced with gold
My world a beauty to behold
And wise old dogs do form my pride
to amble at my very side

At night I sleep in angel's arms
Their wings protecting me
And moonbeams dance about us
As stardust falls on thee

So when your life on earth is spent
And you reach Heaven's gate
Have no fear of loneliness
For here, you know I wait...
