Deceased Pets

We know when animals are not feeling well Though of how they feel to us they cannot tell And people do grieve when their pets do die The story of a four legged friend is not based on a lie. The young girl for her dead Jack russell Terrier in tears He died of a heart ailment he was only five years When she thinks of her Freddy tears flow down her face No dog in her heart will ever take his place. Since at the loss of a non human friend people for many months grieve That pets are just pets one ought not to believe The bonds between humans and their pets are strong Those who tell you otherwise have got it wrong. Their animals, birds, fish and reptiles to most people precious indeed And the death of a pet friend to tears often does lead And the mental pictures of a dead pet for decades their owners retain And the memories of a non human deceased friend with them does remain.
