Lasja's Gentle Departure Sunbeams warm upon your sighs. Old age's hand, a gentle touch, Taking you to heaven's blush. Your wagging tail, a memory now, Gentle rest, how I wish I could somehow Keep the warmth within your fur, Just let you be. Golden days, in fields of green, Chasing butterflies, a joyful scene. Your playful leaps, a happy sound, echoes of a time unbound. Now slumber deep, my Lasja dear, Gone from sight but always near. Softly breathing, gentle sigh, Leaving me with tears in my eye. A lifetime's love, a bond so true, Now I watch you, my love, say goodbye. My heart is aching, Yet peace is granted Through shadowed hours, you've been my friend, Now sleep, my heart, no more to end, A gentle whisper, a soft goodbye, Now your soul takes flight to the sky. Remember all the fun, and games we shared, Lasja, my love, forever spared. So quiet now, and soft the air, A gentle passing, beyond compare.
