To my beloved

            furry friend and companion…

 
Bless your precious soul

Your life will not be a story untold

The time we shared

The way you cared

            With tender affection

You will never ever be forgotten

 
How I long with all my heart

            That we never part

To hold you

And pet you

                        And snuggle together again

Though you were small in stature

You were a giant in love

 
How can I accept our last

            Goodbye

To understand the ways of life and death

To seek peace amidst the grief

To trust Our Creator always knows best

And all things happen for a reason

 
Bless your precious soul

Your life will not be a story untold

As you make the journey

            Know you are much loved

As I pray that one day

            Our souls will meet again

You will forever be remembered

 
Godspeed, Little One

1/4 cup sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp ground black pepper

6. Return dough to bowl, cover, and let rise for 20-30 minutes, until dough is about doubled in size.
