I wrote this beautiful poem with so much emotion when a friend of mine's loving dog passed away. I have since shared it with a few other friends of mine when they lost their sweet angels. When I wrote this, I was thinking of my Indy and my heart ached knowing that this poem would be for him one day…
I dedicate this poem to my true love Indiana who will forever live on in my heart. His paw prints are engraved in my heart and in my soul. I will love him until the end of time.
I am still here
Just a heartbeat away
For I live within your heart
And I am here to stay
We have an eternal bond
That you will always feel
We will love each other forever
And that is very real
Please think of me as happy
At peace and not alone
For heaven is a comfort
Like the comfort you have shown
You have always been there for me
Putting me before the rest
I will always remember you
For you have been the best
There is nothing stronger
Than the love you have given me
I will live within your heart forever
Until eternity…

Carol, That is a wonderful poem/tribute to Indy. I'm so sorry for your loss, but in time the sweet memories of Indy will replace the grief you are feeling now. He'll be in your heart always! RIP Indy, run free at Rainbow Bridge.
Sending you many golden hugs...

I just wanted to say again how sorry I am for the loss of your beautiful Indy. The poem is very touching.
Comet - 1999 to 2011
She departed us unexpectedly January 23, 2011 at the age of 12 1/2.
She was born with a deformed front leg and a tripawd all of her life.
What a beautiful poem! I am so sorry for your loss. Indy was a beautiful dog and that poem was a wonderful tribute to him.

To all of my dear friends who I have met through our most wonderful and special Tripawds,
Thank you all for your very sweet & kind words of love. It touches my heart that so many of you are here for us during this very sad time. My heart is so broken and I can't imagine life without my Indy. He is a part of me and I know he lives in my heart ~ always with me in spirit. Just know that I will always be a part of the Tripawd family and will continue writing poems, sharing many photos and creating so many more videos. Please visit "Indiana's Love" from time to time. One day I will finish writing on the side links about his story...
Lots of love from Indiana's mom - Carol xoxo

Carol,
I have been following Indy's story, and knew that his time was getting close. Even when there is time to say good-bye, even knowing ahead of time that the end is coming, it's still never an easy thing. My heart is breaking for you.
Sending you comforting thoughts,
Micki
