REQUEST
by Harry F G Griffin

In the land of no goodbyes,
Where my Pinky now resides,
Let there be a place for me,
Where my love again I’ll see.
Walk with her the paths of home,
In that eternal timeless zone,
Watch her gambol on the lawn,
Greet me eagerly at dawn.
When it’s solace that I seek,
Extend a paw and pat my cheek,
Joy and woe may life entwine,
But love outlasts the sands of time.
