He wagged his tail to the very last
And he smiles in his last, long sleep
The troubles of life, for him, are past,
In his grave, a few feet deep.
His soul--for I feel that he had a soul
And he thought real thoughts, I know,
Has found the ultimate end, life's goal,
In the heaven where good dogs go.

He has lived with me and has suffered with me,
Shed tears, in his dog-like way;
He has placed his paw at times on my knee,
In a vain attempt to say:
"God never gave us that wondrous power,
To tell all the things we feel,
But, I want to say, in my canine way,
That my sympathy is real."

So I loved my dog to the very end,
And he in our daily walk,
Was never just a dog, but a constant friend
And we had no need t talk.
And I hope, when the summons comes, for me
To embark on the unknown tide,
I shall find his eyes in the Paradise
They say is the Other Side.

Oh God, my master,
should I gain the grace
to see thee face to face
when life is ended,
grant that a little dog who once pretended
that I was God,
might see me face to face.
