I was standing on a hillside in a field of blowing wheat and the spirit of Dog was lying at my feet. He looked at me with kind dark eyes an ancient wisdom shining through and in the essence of his being I saw love there too. His mind did lock upon my heart as I stood there on that day and he told me of this story about a place so far away. I stood upon that hillside in a field of blowing wheat and in a twinkling of a second His spirit left my feet. His tale did put my heart at ease; my fears did fade away about what lay ahead of me on another distant day. “I live among God’s creatures now in the heavens of your mind, so do not grieve for me, my friend as I am with my kind.
My collar is a rainbow’s hue, my leash a shooting star; my boundaries are the Milky Way where I sparkle from afar. There are no pens or kennels here for I am not confined, but free to roam God’s heavens among my kind. I nap the day on a snowy cloud, gentle breezes rocking me and dream the dreams of earthlings and how it used to be. The trees are full of liver treats and tennis balls abound and milk-bones line the walkways just waiting to be found. There even is a ring set up, the grass all lush and green and everyone who gaits around becomes the Best of Breed. For we’re all winners in this place, we have no faults you see and God passes out those ribbons to each one, even me. I drink from waters laced with gold, my world a beauty to behold and wise old dogs do form my pride to amble at my very side. At night I sleep in an angel’s arms her wings protecting me and moonbeams dance about us as stardust falls on thee. So when your life on earth is spent and you stand at Heaven’s gate have no fear of loneliness for here, you know I wait.

Today I lost my best friend,
God called you to his side.
It happened oh so suddenly,
My tears I could not hide.
I knelt down right beside you,
And looked into your face,
I knew then you were leaving,
Although I prayed you'd stay.
My heart is very heavy,
I feel so strong an ache,
I love you oh so dearly,
But you he chose to take.
My Sandy, oh my Sandy,
I miss you every day,
And when my life is over,
Together we will stay.
We will walk the bridge together,
To our new home we will go,
Till then my darling Sandy,
Please know I love you so.
God Bless xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Beautiful memories Are wonderful things, They last till the longest day, They never wear out, They never get lost, And can never be given away. To some you may be forgotten, To others a part of the past. But to us who loved and lost you, Your memory will always last. xxxxxxxxxxfresh flowers sweetheart xxxxxxxxxxx
When I have no one to turn to
and I’m feeling kind of low
When there’s no one here to talk to
and nowhere I want to go
I search deep down within myself
It is the love inside the heart
that let’s me know my Angels are there
Even though we are miles apart
A smile then appears upon my face
and the sun begins to shine
I hear a voice, so soft and sweet,
saying, “everything will be just fine”
It may seem that I am alone,
but I am never by myself at all
Whenever I need my Angels near
All I have to do is call
An Angels love is always true,
on that you can depend
He will always stand beside you
and will always be your friend.</
