Daisy
Named after a flower
So bright and so sweet
With chocolate brown eyes
She was hard to beat

A German Shepherd
I've had all my days
She and my brother, oh,
They were together always


She was sweet and gentle
Wouldn't hurt a fly
She loved all fiercely
Makes you wonder why

She had to die that way
After all those years
In a vet in a small town
In a room soaked with tears


She was not in pain
She was only sleeping
But as it all ended
I prayed I was dreaming

I know it was irreparable
It was the merciful act
I know if she could, she
Would thank me for that

She went on peacefully
In a calm, easy way
And if dogs go to heaven
She's waiting there today
