My Old "Furry" Brother

Your time on earth has reached an end
Our home will never be the same
Memories of you being there will always linger and remain
Your napping spot and your feeding bowl
Your life on earth as my older brother
Tells the world how much you mattered
And now my dear beloved Pet/One last command I send
Please wait for us in heaven/As my eternal Friend.

My older brother was a dog named Copper. They say that dogs are man's best friend, but they should say that they can be a brother, a sister, and also a friend.

He was old by the time he made an impact on me. Everyone knew that he was Daddy's follower and also the dog who went walking with his alpha. If love could have saved Copper, he would have lived forever.
