Dave and I picked up Mandy's ashes from the vets tonight. :mecry:

 

It has been a really hard couple of weeks here. :(

 

I am sorry I have had to be away for a while and still have to be. Although this was expected, it has hit us all hard. :mecry: I have lit a candle for our beautiful girlie tonight and it is on top of the tv with her ashes in a lovely casket.

 

Bless her heart we knew we only had 6/9 months and she was reasonably comfortable for almost 17. Still hurts like hell though. :(

 

I guess this is the problem with having oldies. I need time out now. Definitely. Time out from it all (dog rescue) for a few months then I need to make a decision. At the moment I can not think straight. :( We have lost Max and Mandy in less than a year.

 

I can't take any more. :mecry:

 

Thanks to those nice people for their kind wishes. :GroupHug: :wub:

 

Kazz and Dave xx

OLD DOG IN A LOCKET

Old dog in a locket

That lies next to my heart

I will always love you

As I did right from the start

You were right beside me

Through the darkest of my days

It was your kind and gentle nature

That made me want to stay.

 

Now I hold you in my arms

Your breath still warm against my hand

Our hearts still beat together

And I wonder if you understand

Through the hours that I held you

Before the light did leave your soul

I knew a way to keep you

Forever in my hold.

 

I snipped the hair from around your eyes

So I would always see

The beauty that surrounds me

Even in times of need

I snipped the hair from around your ears

So I would always hear

Music in the distance

To quiet any fears.

 

I snipped the hair from across your back

To bring me strength in times of need

And the power of your essence

Would always be with me.

I snipped the hair from around your heart

That beats in time with mine

So I would know that love would find me

At some distant time.

 

And so your life slipped out of mine

On a quiet, spring like day

But I knew that part of you

Was always here to stay.

Old dog in a locket

That lays next to my heart

I will always love you

Even though we had to part.
