Dearest Dixie,
Six weeks ago today,
The Angels came and took you away.
They took you so you wouldn't suffer so,
They knew your time on earth was over, it was your time to go.
Our hearts are now breaking in two,
We still love and miss our Dixie Pooh.
We miss throwing your frisbee and the rocks too,
We miss your bark that said woo woo woo wooooo.
We miss your fur all spotted black and white,
We miss you taking up most of the bed at night.
We miss taking you for bye-bye rides,
We miss you walking proudly by our sides.
We miss your kisses and all your love too,
But most of all Dixie, we miss you.
Wait for us Dixie, sit on the highest ridge,
For one day we will join you at Rainbows Bridge.
Love, Mama, Larry, Pogee and Dolly
