Pay no attention to human beside me. I was the real star in these pictures.

Once I was young and
could run like the wind
I could leap oh so high
And never tire of the game

I stood watch night and day
I barked to keep harm away
I gave warning when
there was fire
And sometimes
I barked just for joy

But at last, I grew old and couldn't run so well
I could no longer leap and play the game
I tried to keep you from seeing me fail
But my body was tired and there was pain

Dearest Maxie...always faithful. Miss you and love with all my heart.

My time to leave you has finally come
I close my eyes and have no fear
In gentle slumber, I slip away
The only pain is in your tears

I'm going to be joyful and young again
Running and playing as I did yesteryear
Please don't be afraid that I've left you alone
I'm still standing watch until you are here
