As I watched you growing older
I was sad at what I found.
You were starting to be feeble -
It was hard to get around.

Though your spirit still was willing,
The flesh was becoming weak
And it grieved me to be thinking
That your life had passed its peak.

We had wonderful times together
And you were a faithful friend
Words can't tell how much I miss you
Since your days came to an end.

I know somewhere there's a heaven
For beloved pets like you
Where you've found a special place
And you're just as good as new
