2000 - 2012
This morning, we said a gentle goodbye to a friend
A friend who shared 12 years of our lives
A friend who unselfishly taught us so many
Of life's precious lessons.
He taught us timidity is just another form of obedience
He taught us true love is unconditional
And wagged his tail each time he saw us
No matter what our mood.
He brought out the best in us -
Developed our patience
Grew our faith
Cultivated our hope
Stretched our imagination
Harvested our love
And increased our zest
For life!
He showed us the meaning of trust and
Did our bidding without question
Always believing
We had his well being in mind.
He taught us tenacity - never to give up without a fight
He taught us dignity - to go "quietly into the night"
He taught us God is in charge
Always.
This morning, we closed another chapter in our book
And look back with much love
And no regrets
At the 12 years we had together
A dog named Jordan
Closed his eyes
Breathed his last
And bade us farewell.
Dedicated to our lovely dog Jordan who went home to his Creator at 3.55 am on 26 February 2012.
We know he rests in peace.
