Goodbye, Old Friend.

A Poem on the Painful Decision of Euthanizing a Beloved Dog

By Quincy.VPublished 4 years ago • 1 min read

The dog lay there, his eyes so dim,

His body frail and weak.

His master knew it was time for him

To let his dear friend sleep.

The dog had been a faithful mate,

Loyal through and through.

But now it was too late

To save him, and his master knew.

With a heavy heart and tear-filled eyes,

The master raised his hand,

And in that moment, he realized

He had to take a stand.

He whispered words of love and care,

As he gently set him free.

The dog took his last breath, and there,

His soul was finally at peace.

The master knew he did the right thing,

As he buried his friend with care.

For in the end, the mercy he did bring,

Was the greatest love he could share.
