On the anniversary of the passing of our beloved 12 year old German Shepherd, the pain of remembrance was brought back in full force. The raw emotions resurfaced at that time, to pen this poem:
In fond remembrance of Misty; Feb. 23, 1988 - May 10, 1999

Your poem was really really nice I know just how you feel I lost my loving cat named Dallas and losing him tore my world in two thanks for letting me know I wasnt the only one felling or having this happen to me.

I myself write a lot of poetry, and that perfectly drew a beautiful and heartfelt picture of the pain that one can suffer when a beloved pet is taken from us. It really made me well up inside as i have experienced these emotions. Animals love us unconditionally, and this feels irreplacable when we lose them
sue
I am so sorry for your loss. I hope your doing well.

the poem really made me cry because it made me think about my pet which was like a child to me she was hit by a car i always thought it was my fault and i still do, i will never forget her,i will especially not forget the ways she would cheer me up when something was wrong, the kisses she gave me to show how she really loved me,i will especially miss her barking, and talking to me,but i know that she would want me to be happy because she is in a good place, but i can not help myself from crying.

Anyone who has lost a beloved pet can certainly relate to this poem--the pets are more like our children, and we grieve for them for a long time after they leave us---I do believe I'll meet them again at The Rainbow Bridge though! Emilie

I loved this poem. I lost my dog recently and I know how it feels. I really needed a poem like this because of a weird feeling inside that told me to fin one and this met the critiriea

This Poem is excellent, I have been searching all night for a poem that would make me cry; which mind you isnt an easy task for me, but this poem it made me cry, twice in fact when i read it over again. It reminded me of my old bird who died, he had a fit, due to stress from hitting a rotating fan, we really loved him, it has been about 1 and a half years since his death.

I loved this poem. I just lost my puppy today, and now I know that I am not alone. I wanted to die. This was the worst days of my life. This poem made me cry, a lot! I loved the poem, but it did not make me feel better, b/c it was only saying what I was feeling.

I lost my cat on January 21st. It was 4:30 a. m. and he was sleeping in my bed and he had a heart attack. I cry for 3 days and just can not let Tiger go. When I read this poem I cried. And think of Tiger. You poem has touched me like no humane can. Thank you!

this poem really dug deep into my heart. my dog passed away a few years ago and it tore me up inside - he was my best friend and nothing will ever replace him. i really love this poem even if it made me cry.

Hey I just wanted you to know that the poem had brought back memories of my own! I also had a german shepard named misty! She also died! She had bone cancer so we had to put her down! Through my eyes, she wasn't a dog but a close friend who would always be there for me! When I lost her, I cried for days and couldn't get over the fact that i lost her! But i am VERy sorry for your loss! And i hope all goes well with you in the future!
