Poems About Dogs<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Poems<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Dying<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Author: N. Ellis<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Fur soft as down, eyes bright and true,
A loyal companion, always by our side.
But life is fleeting, and all things must pass,
Leaving us to mourn the ones we love.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Dogs dying, hearts breaking,
Tears falling like rain,
Memories of wagging tails and playful barks,
Echoing in our minds, forever etched in our hearts.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Through fields of green and streets of stone,
They roamed with us, never alone.
But now they rest, their journey done,
Leaving us with love that shines on.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Though death may come and take them away,
Their memory will live on, every single day.
For in our hearts, they will always stay,
Forever loved, forever missed.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Rest in peace dear four-legged friend,
Till we meet again.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Love<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: S. Hewitt<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
With wagging tails and tongues that loll,
They greet us at the door,
Unconditional love in every wag,
Forever loyal, forever more.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Through thick and thin, through joy and strife,
They stand by us, our constant guide,
With eyes that sparkle and hearts that beat,
Their love, forever by our side.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Their love is pure, their love is true,
With no judgment or demand,
They give it freely, without reserve,
A love that knows no end.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
With every bark and every kiss,
They show us what love means,
A never-ending, selfless gift,
That makes our hearts beam.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
So let us treasure this love so rare,
And hold it dear to our heart,
For in this world, there is nothing
Like the love of a dog, pure and smart.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
In Heaven<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: Z. Hines<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
Beyond the clouds, up in the sky,
Where angels sing and flowers bloom,
There lies a place where dogs run free,
Their spirits lifted from their tombs.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
In heaven's fields, where grass is green,
And sunbeams dance on butterfly wings,
Dogs frolic, with no pain or fear,
And joyous barks and howls they sing.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
With tails wagging and tongues lolling,
They chase each other round and round,
Their souls renewed, their spirits whole,
In this peaceful, heavenly ground.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
And when we think of them, up above,
Our hearts are filled with love and pride,
For they are free, and happy now,
With Jesus by their side.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
So let us not weep for our four-legged friends,
For they are in a better place,
Where they run, and play and love,
With a boundless, eternal grace.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Getting Old<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: B. Bradford<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
With silver fur and eyes that dim,
Our loyal friends grow old,
Their energy wanes, their step unsure,
But love for us, never grows cold.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Through years of walks and games of fetch,
They've been our constant companion,
But now they sleep more, and tire easily,
Aging, a natural progression.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
We see the signs, the wrinkles deep,
The gray around their snout,
But in our hearts, they'll always be,
The same playful pup we once knew.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Though time may take its toll on them,
Their love for us remains the same,
And as we hold their heads in our laps,
We whisper their name.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
So let us cherish these golden years,
With our old friends by our side,
For the memories we've shared,
Will forever be our pride.<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
Funny<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
Author: D. Rollins<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
There once was a pooch named old Mutt,
Who loved to eat bones and drink nut,
He'd howl at the moon,
And bark at the dune,
Till the neighbors would all say \"nuts!\"<\/pre>\n\n\n\n
