Wish You Were There, Sam

From the day you barked at me from the day you died,

From the day you left me from the day I cried.

I will always remember you, Sam, no matter what anyone has to say,

So big, so protective, but yet cute in your own special way.

As I paint this part on the canvas, I'm painting you orange with blue ears,

A sky full of blue, the clouds are white, you're in heaven now, although there are no tears.

I also remember you had a love-heart printed on your backside,

I wish I could have painted that on the canvas that was wide.

As I write this poem tears are running down my cheek,

I'm going to look at the canvas just a little peek,

And there you are! ...

I will never forget when I used to lie on your back,

You lying there as well and behind you was me,

With the warmth of us sleeping together happily.

The warmth a heater, the radiation of our hearts

I didn't matter I could still imagine you!

You licked my nose, you ruffled my hair,

I used to ride you like a pony but you didn't care.

Sam I wish I can squeeze you one more time,

But don't worry your heart is always next mine!
