[Oagdu] FW: [The-dog-park] poem

[tollebooth at gmail.com]

The blind will see the deaf will hear the lame will walk the dumb will speak. Our infirmities are facets of this life, not the life to come. And I don't think the pogs will fight over us up there. They will all know their place and love us.  Those who would say that there are no animals in heaven because the question whether animals have a soul should consider that the Bible tells us in several places that over there when the end of things has come the lion will lay down with the lamb and there shall be peace.  Now for those of you who are biology and entomology experts you can help me out but I'm quite sure that a lion and the lamb are both animals.

Scripture also tells us that we should have the desires of our heart. Haven't wouldn't be having without my Pogs in it.  Now I know God will change a lot of things when we get where we're going but the one thing that always makes me curious is… Where will all of our guide Pogs park?

>>> I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
>>> I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep.
>>> I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
>>> "It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."
>>> 
>>> I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,
>>> You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached down to me.
>>> I was with you at the shops today, Your arms were getting sore.
>>> I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
>>> 
>>> I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care.
>>> I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
>>> I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
>>> I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said " it's me."
>>> 
>>> You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
>>> I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.
>>> It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
>>> To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."
>>> You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
>>> In the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
>>> 
>>> The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning
>>> and say "good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."
>>> And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
>>> I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
>>> I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.
>>> 
>>> Be patient, live your journey out...then come home to be with me.
