Kiwi was a big orange tom cat, who was so gentle he would let my daughter dress him up, and dance around the room with him. He was a good age when he died and it was quick thank goodness as I did not like to think of him suffering.You got the impression that Kiwi had been here before as sometimes he was almost human, and he was very good at knowing when you were down, and would rub himself against you and purr, as if telling you not to worry. He had a way of making me feel very calm inside.

~ In Memoriam ~
Leo: A Yellow Cat

If to your twilight land of dream-
Persephone, Persephone,
Drifting with all your shadow host-
Dim sunlight comes, with sudden gleam
And you lift veiled eyes to see
Slip past a little golden ghost,
That wakes a sense of springing flowers,
Of nesting birds, of lambs reborn,
Of spring astir in quickening hours,
And young blades of Demeter's corn;
For joy of that sweet glimpse of sun,
Oh, Goddess of unnumbered dead,
Give one soft touch-if only one-
To that uplifted, pleading head!
Whisper some kindly word, to bless
A wistful soul who understands
That life is but one long caress
Of gentle words and gentle hands.

♥ Secret Places ♥

The grass is soft
and the pond is cool
Around grow the flowers
and the tiny toadstools.

The trees, they glisten
with leaves of pure gold
A tiny little wild spot
that is ever so old.

A hidden place from our sight
A place of natural beauty
and serene delight.
So tiny is this,
we can hardly see
All over the earth
there are millions of these.

Overlooked by us,
as a puddle, not a pond
Never do we see it
as anything beyond.
So it is fitting
that these places glisten with pure gold
For to us, we cannot see
these tiny little strongholds.

Yes, you may see
a few toadstools growing in the shade,
And you may see the puddles
that in your mind
only the rain has made.
You may see the flowers
and the soft grass,
Appearing to you
as a mushy moldy mass.

Yes…
these are the secret places of the Fae
A place where they can
safely stowaway!!

♥ Waiting For Wilbur ♥

You run green fields and chase the clouds.
No boundaries. No sorrow. No pain.
Although I want to be with you, it is here where I remain.
Our memories are comfort now.
So treasured. So welcomed. So strong.
Although you are in another place, it is here where I belong.
One day, I know, I’ll cross the bridge.
Over stars. Beyond clouds. By the sea.
But until I travel to rainbows end, by the shore, Wilbur waits for me.

When we are in need of comfort
We walk down memory lane,
There we see you smiling
We talk with you again,
And as we wander slowly back
We seem to hear you say
Don't grieve. don't cry, my family,
We'll meet again some day.

Little Angels Poem

Little angels from up above
Sent to us so full of love,
Never judging, always there
A faithful heart that is so rare.

Gentle eyes, shining bright
An energy of holy light,
Loyalty, that is unmatched
So easily we are attached.

A love so pure, none to compare
Sweet memories that we have shared,
Never could one ever dream
The impact from this little being.

They touch our lives more than we know
We live with them and watch them grow,
Share our laughs and our cries
Always soothed by loving eyes.

Little angels so strong and true
They live their lives just for you,
"Good-bye" for now, we'll meet again
My sweet and pure, angelic friend.

*ღ* I Wake at Night *ღ*

I wake at night - and hear
A soft sweet howl, floating on the wind
A kindred spirit - gone from here and now,
Yet lingering - forever lingering.
I see the ready smile, the proud yet gentle eyes of my dear friend
I smile and weep - for what we shared.... a bond too strong to end.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Beyond the Pearly Gates Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ

She'd been with you for many years
Her loyalty did show
You loved her and she loved you back
Until she had to go…♥
You found him as a lonely stray
You gave him lots of care
His grateful love had known no bounds
Until he wasn't there…♥
You miss her shaggy golden head
Or striped or spotted back
Your dear companion cat or dog
Whose love you'd never lack…♥
Do not despair for they'll be there
When your time's at the end
There, just beyond the Pearly Gates
Awaits your furry friend…♥

Out of the Stars
~ Robert Weston ~

Out of the stars in their flight, out of the dust of eternity,
here have we come,
Stardust and sunlight,
mingling through time and through space.

Out of the stars have we come,
up from time.
Out of the stars have we come.

Time out of time before time
in the vastness of space,
earth spun to orbit the sun,
Earth with the thunder of mountains newborn,
the boiling of seas.

Earth warmed by sun, lit by sunlight;
This is our home;
Out of the stars have we come.

Mystery hidden in mystery,
back through all time;
Mystery rising from rocks
in the storm and the sea.

Out of the stars, rising from rocks
and the sea,
kindled by sunlight on earth,
arose life.

Ponder this thing in your heart,
life up from sea:
Eyes to behold, throats to sing,
mates to love.

Life from the sea, warmed by sun,
washed by rain,
life from within, giving birth,
rose to love.

This is the wonder of time;
this is the marvel of space;
out of the stars swung the earth;
life upon earth rose to love.

This is the marvel of life,
rising to see and to know;
Out of your heart, cry wonder:
sing that we live.

~ Love and Blessings ~ xxx

On the death of the Beloved
Ⓒ John O'Donohue

Though we need to weep your loss,
You dwell in that safe place in our hearts,
Where no storm or might or pain can reach you.

Your love was like the dawn
Brightening over our lives
Awakening beneath the dark
A further adventure of colour.

The sound of your voice
Found for us
A new music
That brightened everything.

Whatever you enfolded in your gaze
Quickened in the joy of its being;
You placed smiles like flowers
On the altar of the heart.
Your mind always sparkled
With wonder at things.

Though your days here were brief,
Your spirit was live, awake, complete.

We look towards each other no longer
From the old distance of our names;
Now you dwell inside the rhythm of breath,
As close to us as we are to ourselves.

Though we cannot see you with outward eyes,
We know our soul's gaze is upon your face,
Smiling back at us from within everything
To which we bring our best refinement.

Let us not look for you only in memory,
Where we would grow lonely without you.
You would want us to find you in presence,
Beside us when beauty brightens,
When kindness glows
And music echoes eternal tones.

When orchids brighten the earth,
Darkest winter has turned to spring;
May this dark grief flower with hope
In every heart that loves you.

May you continue to inspire us:

To enter each day with a generous heart.
To serve the call of courage and love
Until we see your beautiful face again
In that land where there is no more separation,
Where all tears will be wiped from our mind,
And where we will never lose you again.

*ღ* My Memories *ღ*
(Patience Strong)

On the road that all must tread
You have traveled on ahead
Out into the morning light
Out of reach and out of sight
But never far away
For every night and every day
On the wings of memory
Something brings you back to me
Some simple and familiar thing
That sets my heart remembering.

*ღ* Memories *ღ*
(James Carter)

The memories we hold deep within our heart,
can bring us joy, or tear us apart.
They surface when we're lonely, they make us cry,
As we sort through painful memories, of days gone by.
They can cause such sadness and heartache too,
We even wonder at times if we'll make it through.
..ღ..
The memories are our past, we never let them go,
They are also our future to help us grow.
Memories within the heart, always stay,
But given time, the pain, will go away.
..ღ..
Give yourself the time, for when heartache is real
You need to grieve before wounds can heal.
Then you can look back, once in awhile,
And memories will be there to remember with a smile.
..ღ..
They'll bring you comfort, there'll be no more pain,
And your heart will be free....to love again.
