This story that I am about to tell,
Lies in fact...not in fantasy,
I loved him more than words could say,
I was blessed to have him with me.
His love unconditional...always by my side,
Steadfast in his own little way,
I've never known a love like this,
And he is with me everyday.
His picture...I keep close to me,
So I may see him everyday,
Each time that I...take a look,
He always seems to say.
My love for you...was unconditional,
So was my loyalty, my faithfullness and devotion,
These thoughts I covet...with all I have,
And it fills me...with so much emotion.
Then one day...Ben passed away,
And my mind became a fog,
You see...Ben was my very best friend!
And my very first dog.
Some will say...I changed that day,
And I admit, that they are right,
But he is with me everyday,
And I miss him every night.
Mere words just...could not convey!
Just what he meant to me,
But I know...I'll see him once again,
When time catches up with me.
Now, some will laugh and some will cry,
Yet I want no sympathy,
Because I thank God...for the privilage of,
Bringing Ben to me.
