Into the garden

Into the garden
and there made to lie
Mans so called best friend
A truly loyal guy
Feeling so sickly
Looking real bad
So pale and withdrawn
And immensely sad

Crawled into a garden
To lay his sweet head
and be taken by angels
To heaven
Instead
Present day angels
Were called to his side
Picked him up gently
And placed him inside

The ambulance
Took him
Where duty of care
Cleaned his right eye and his head
And did share
Love and attention
bandaged him well
And for two weeks
He slept
He was under their spell

After three weeks
Tail
Wagging a way tummy rubs ,kisses
Order of the day
Walking and wagging
No one could believe
How he had progressed
And what They had achieved
