"Amber Eyes"

There's a black dog in the moonlight,
That only I can see,
Gentle, silent, amber eyes,
Smiling back at me.

She comes to me at Dreamtime.
I feel her presence near.
Is this a dream or fantasy,
Or is she really here?

She nuzzles me so softly,
I reach to touch her face,
Her image fades so suddenly,
Leaving nothing in its place.

Her memory does haunt me,
At night when I'm alone.
I miss her laughing, amber eyes
And the bond that we had known.

Those gentle eyes so shining,
Do pull upon my heart,
But I know someday we'll meet again,
And then we'll never part.
