|

Kelly was PTS last night! She will be deeply missed!
Goodnight Angel
I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep.
I could see that you were crying. You found it hard to sleep.
I whined to you softly as you brushed away a tear,
"It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here."
I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea,
You were thinking of the many times your hands reached down to me.
I was with you at the shops today. Your arms were getting sore.
I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more.
I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care.
I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there.
I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key.
I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "It's me."
You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair.
I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there.
It's possible for me to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew...
in the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you.
The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning
and say "Good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning."
And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide,
I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side.
I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see.
Be patient, live your journey out... then come home to be with me _________________ When a dog wags her tail and barks at the same time, how do you know which end to believe? |

Cheeko was in an awful state when we left last nite but hopefuly she will pick up in the next couple of days, her and Millie will be together most of the weekend so hopefully that will cheer her up! _________________ When a dog wags her tail and barks at the same time, how do you know which end to believe? |

Sorry for your loss. Sharing the sorrow of broken hearts when we lose our best friends can give us strength, understanding and compassion. A heart never broken is pristine and sterile and will never know the joy of being imperfect.
Take comfort from Cheeko who will need you now. _________________ Regards,
