CORI A MEMORIAL PAGE TO MY SON

Treasured Friend

I lost a treasured friend today,

The little dog who used to lay

His gentle head upon my knee

And share his silent thoughts with me.

He'll come no longer to my call,

Retrieve no more his favorite ball.

A voice far greater than my own

Has called him to His golden throne.

And though my eyes are filled with tears,

I thank Him for the happy years

He let him spend down here with me,

And for his love and loyalty.

Creation

When God had made the earth and sky,

the flowers and the trees,

He then made all the animals

the fish, the birds and bees

And when at last He'd finished

not one was quite the same.

He said I'll walk this world of mine

and give each one a name.

And so He travelled far and wide

and everywhere He went,

a little creature followed Him

until its strength was spent.

When all were named upon the earth

and in the Sky and Sea,

the little creature said "Dear Lord,

there's no name left for me."

Kindly the Father said to him

"I've left you to the end.

I've turned my own name back to front

And called you DOG, my friend".
