AWE! "I" did not see, feel or experience this ( your heartfelt words in such expressive verses) Lady J -
I am so sorry for your grief, that you were feeling at that/this time!
Loosing our loved ones (even furry pet friends) is heartening!
I know these feelings all too well, the connection to OUR HEARTS they sure impart!
Such sadness you expressively wrote so well, 11 years is wonderful unending time with her heart and soul!
This poem touched me deeply and brought many < <tears>> I guess were needed ~
YOu wrote of such beautiful imagery! HAPPY and SAD times/memories...
YOU will see "BOOMER" again, in the heavens! as he wags his knowing tail to you again and that shine in his eyes will bring a happiness to yours!
WRITE ON! ( It's been so long, what does YOUR HEART need to share with the world!

I had to come back to read this poem again. I was too choked up to do anything but leave the first time. I lost Simon, a baying beagle, this spring and I am still having trouble. I don't take the loss of a dog well. I'm sorry about your Boomer. Liz

Joyce,
I am so very sorry for your loss:( I lost my dog this year, too. I framed the poem I wrote for him & I have it next to his ashes with pictures. I'm glad you have the opportunity to do something special for your furry friend, too, because it really helps. Remember the good times & the unconditional love. Hugs,
Sheila

Sorry to hear about your loss, Joyce. I know how attached one can get to a family pet. A home is never empty when one has a pet, and love is never missing either. Blessings to you, my friend.

Prayers and God's Blessings to you in your grief, Joyce. On 9-8-94 I, too, lost my precious friend, RagAMuffin; she shared 16 yrs., 6 mos., and 2 days of wonderment with me, such as you describe in your remembrance to Boomer. I share your grief, friend!

You will come to grips soon, dear friend. Adopt another pet (child :>) soon. It may not be Boomer but it will ease the pain and fill a big hole. Much love to you my friend.
