Mark, I wanted to share this poem that was given to me by my Veternarian, Dr. Black

Ode to My Friend

Close your eyes now, my longtime friend, and let this time of suff3ering come to a peaceful end. We’ll walk together soon, I’m sure, as winter turns to spring, when snow gives way to budding leaves and birds begin to sing, the gentle breeze shall call your name along the water’s edge. For what we shared and what you meant shall never be forgotten. Your friendship spans the years behind your memory ahead. you’ll always be there next to me, companion and good friend.
