Brett - I wanted to post the Rainbow Bridge Story but this one seemed more appropriate for you...your post was just heartbreaking and I wanted to share this with you - the last 2 lines just really get to me
I got to the gate of Heaven this morning, after we said good-bye.
I began to miss you terribly, because I heard you cry.
Suddenly there was an Angel and she asked me to enter Heaven's gate.
I asked her if I could stay outside for someone who would be late.
I wouldn't make much noise you see, I wouldn't bark or howl.
I'll only wait here patiently and play with my tennis ball.
The Angel said I could stay right here and wait for you to come
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven if I went in alone.
So I'll wait right here, you take your time, but keep me in your heart.
Because Heaven just wouldn't be Heaven without you to warm my heart. |
