THE LAST ACT OF COMPASSION

He lies there gently breathing,
And he'd like for you to know,
That he's reached the final crisis
And it's time for him to go.

He needs a little help now,
To ease him from this life,
There's nothing left but suffering,
You can see it in his eyes.

The vet has got the answer,
To end his pain and fear,
That last act of compassion,
For a friend you love so dear.

So save him from those last days,
He deserves a final peace,
It's a mercy, not betrayal,
To ease him into sleep.

I know your heart is broken,
Though the pain, in time, will ease,
And at Heaven's gates he's waiting,
On the threshold of a dream.

(S Hartwell)

 
 

 
 

 
 

My dearest Michael,


You rescued Monello from 13 years of agony being tied outside to a tree. He was sick when you got
him and you worked with him to make him better. He was your buddy and palled around with you when
you went for car rides and for walks. He talked to you when he wanted you to feed him. He liked to
mess up your bed when he wanted to get comfy and close to you. He also let you know when he was
feeling bad lately. You held him lovingly when you said Goodbye to each other...Monello is grateful
for not hurting any more, and he doesnt want you to hurt either. After all, he expects to see you
where he is one day, but until then, he will be watching over you and looking forward to barking at you
again some day.
Love,
Sandra
