Smile A dedication to a best friend

The following is a dedication to a best friend, or inspired by a best dog friend of mine named Happy. I do not care if anyone thinks I am silly for writing this, but this poem or whatever you can classify it as was inspired by him. He is resting now, resting peacefully.

****
You came into my life
For such a short time
But it seemed like it was longer.
You brought joy to my heart
And laughter to my face.
I never had a bad time with you.
You were special
Something of a blessing
Your memories are so clear now.
So vivid and true.
They are like a window pane;
Misty in the rain
Clear in the sunshine.
I gave a part of me to you
And you took it Home with you.
No one will ever fill up that space
I dedicated to you.
I have shed many tears
I have said my final goodbyes
But I will never forget you.
I know you are sleeping
Resting so peacefully.
But your memory lives on just like you did.
I never owned you
Even though I have papers to show.
I only borrowed you.
God gave you to us
And then took you back home.
I have said my goodbyes
So rest, my friend,
I will see you soon.

****
Thank you, God, for letting me, my grandmother, my dog Ozzie, and my cousin and mother, to be able to spend time with Happy. He was a precious thing.

And...thank you, Happy, for making me laugh!
You were a great thing.
Goodbye, I love you.

And thank you, everyone, for your prayers and kindness.
Please do not take any offense on me, or treat me badly because of this or anything I have written today. This wonderful dog touched me in a way that deserves more than words can explain.

NTG, no one who cares for God's creature could ever be considered silly, for showing their love, and how much joy was had while with us here. As soccerman says
