    Way back in July when I was a pretty new TDKer I posted a poem I’d written the night before I said a final farewell to my beloved Titch. Lots of people said at the time they liked it, and were going to copy it…well I posted it again tonight for Beanie’s owner (the link on the Really Touching Story thread), and thought as we’ve grown so much in the last few months, some of the newer additions to our wonderful family might also like and take some comfort from it. So here it is :

    Night night furball

    Close your eyes

    Dream of chasing butterflies

    Basking in the sunshine

    Jumping up trees

    Exciting smells in a gentle breeze

    Sleep tight furball

    Love you little friend

    I’m so sorry this is the end

    Thanks for the laughter

    Thanks for the tears

    Thanks for all the loving years

    God bless furball

    Don’t be afraid

    I know that you can be brave

    Be peaceful in passing

    Enjoy what’s in store

    In furball heaven

    It won’t hurt anymore

    OH my goodness…. I don’t recall that from the first time around. That is beautiful… and sadly I may need to pass it along soon. A dear friend is about to lose her Skye. He’s 17 and not much more than skin and bones.

    This poem is for anyone and everyone to pass onto to whoever they think it might help. We’ve all been there, it’s horrible. My love to your friend One Popoki.

    OP, my prayers are with your friend. It’s hard to lose a member of your family, but it sometimes is the best thing.

    I definitely remember this poem. Brought me to tears, as I had just lost my 15-yo siamese, Dixie.

    I don’t remember the original posting, either, but this brought tears to my eyes.

    I’ve written eleguies to some of my beloved babies, but nothing quite so…. so…. universal.

    Thank you mcw.

    It’s such a sad time again for some of our TDKers, I’ll bounce this again – see the first post, I hope it brings some comfort to the newly bereaved.

    Dang it MCW, now I’m bawling again. Thanks for posting it, I guess I missed it other time around. Boy, it sure seems like our family has lost a lot of beloved friends lately. A ray of good news was hearing about your mum, so how nice to know the move is soon.
