Ukeke,
I wrote this after a very vivid dream one night, almost ethereal! I sat upright and the words were already there - I hope they help.
'When I look each new morning into your beautiful bright clear eyes
I value with all my soul the time with you, that each dawn buys
My days pass quickly now and you are just a child
with youth to share and games filled with barks and growls and glee
When I'm sad, you can't understand, the gathering shadows that I fear, for I am sentient, human and know one day soon, what must be
Forgive me when I have to leave, but steadfast I'll await your greeting call, no longer a tired old man, but like you now - unpained and free
Trust me little friend, asleep now by my side, that one day we'll run forever, denizens of a kinder land, where our love will always be'…
