SHADOW
Our Shadow has grown very old,
He doesn't view the world the same.
He sits so regally on the lawn,
Announcing his presence and his claim.
He is a Belgian Sheppard with Timber Wolf mix,
Really quite the handsome guy;
He always looks like he is smiling,
And his love shows in his eyes.
Shadow barks come take a look at me,
I'm just giving you my hello.
I'm here just guarding my family,
I still have worth you know.
Yes he has had some anxious moments,
Dementia is what they say;
And there have been some sleepless times,
Yet we would not trade a single day.
Then my man wraps his arms around me,
As he gently states a fact;
That when the leafs change their colors.
It may be our Shadow's last.
We have traveled life's path together,
He is a guardian and steadfast friend;
And we will always remain his caregivers,
Until the bitter end.
