I hold you
in my hands,
and I pray
for God
to take away
your pain...
The light in
your eyes
are dimming,
and I know then
that I am
losing you...
You can't be
with me
forever,
but at least
now I know
you are going
somewhere better...
Perhaps,
one time
we will
meet again.
I only pray
that you
remember even
the tiniest
bit of me...

i agree with chuckymangosoup. I know that pets have souls. I have three dogs and four cats and they are more loyal than most people I know. My dog that is the most special to me has heard all my problems etc etc and I'm sure she is listening. I think your poem does a beautiful job of showing how you yourself value animals/pets and it is very touching =)

Well, have you seen Harry Potter 3? Even though that is fiction, you could live without your soul prolly, but you would be a mindless it that has no reason to exist. God gave us the soul as a life force, like a power, thats what I believe. If the pets didn't have a soul, they wouldn't be able to be happy to see us and love us back. They couldn't move or think or do anything without their soul. So I believe that they have a soul. I love my pets and they are very smart, Smarter than most people I know, but then again. I am waiting to find smart people. I have found you and several others this last year
. TTYL!!!

wah! sorry to hear about your pets
i get really attached to my pets because i really find it so easy to love them... 
and i too have this "belief" thing... that a person's soul sleeps when the "person dies"... and, well, we all meet each other again in that eternal dream haha... i heard from some people that animals don't have souls. i refuse to believe that 
i think they too are waiting for us to join them in that eternal dream

I'm so sorry!!! My hamster and budgie aka parakeet died 2 weeks ago. They died the day after the other, i mean, like, Lemon, the budgie, died on one day and then the next day, Finnigan, my hamster died. I miss him and her a lot. I know how you feel. I cry thinking about death because who ever died isn't with us, but their only alseep, they'll wake up some day. Keep up the good work!!!
