In Memory of Harley
Harley went to Heaven,
But that’s not all there is.
He touched an awful lot of hearts,
With those small paws of his.
His story shared with many,
Tales of suffering and pain.
And how a little one-eyed dog,
Found love and life again.
That heartbreak had a purpose,
Only God and Harley knew.
Until his day of freedom came,
And a new job he would do.
He traveled like a rock star,
Meeting people far and wide,
With his earthly angel Rudi,
Always right there by his side.
Awards, applause and accolades,
Now helped his voice be heard.
And everyone whose path he crossed,
All helped to spread the word.
Yes, Harley’s gone to Heaven,
But his mission it would seem,
Has now been left to us to share,
His big heart and his dream.
Sleep softly, precious Harley.
We’ll take it now from here.
Your story will be told through us,
Although we’ll shed some tears.
The laughter we’ll remember too,
And all the joy you brought.
Those happy times were also,
Special lessons that you taught.
Until it’s time for us to join you,
One day up there in the sky,
We’ll continue on your fight, sweet boy.
Please tell God we said “Hi!”
