For all of us who have lost treasured horses.... “I’ll lend you for a little while; my grandest foal, he said. For you to love while he's alive, and morn for when he's dead. It may be one or twenty years, or days or months, you see. But, will you, till I take him back. Take care of him for me?
He'll bring his charms to gladden you, and should he stay be brief, you’ll have treasured memories, as solace for your grief. I cannot promise he will stay, since all from earth return. But, there are lessons taught on earth I want this foal to learn. I've looked the wide world over in my search for teachers true.
And from the throngs that crowd life's lanes with trust I have selected you. Now will you give him your total love? Nor think the labor vain, nor hate me when I come to take him back again? I know you'll give him tenderness and love will bloom each day. And for the happiness you've known forever grateful stay.
But should I come and call for him much sooner than you'd planned you’ll brave the bitter grief that comes and someday you'll understand. For though I'll call him home to me this promise to you I do make for all the love and care you gave; He'll wait for you, inside Heaven's Gate."
On Sept. 15, 2010 at 3 am, God called He's A Million Dollar Baby home. He is missed greatly but I know He'll wait for me inside Heaven's Gate for me!
