SWEETUMS FAREWELL


Everywhere I look
Everything I see
A very grim reminder
She's not here with me

Every empty bowl
Every Scratching Post
Every little Purrrr
From the one I love the most

No kitty on my bed now
At night when all is still
The touch upon my face
That She no longer will

The house seems O so quiet
Without her soft Meow
They say the heart goes on
I only question........How?

The Tears they will not end
The Pain goes on and on
The Loss within my heart
Now that she is gone

My Heart is breaking now
The Grief will someday end
This Sorrow that I Feel
I only question, When?

The Memories survive
The Love is always there
It's just the time together
That we no longer share

19 years together
How precious was the time
From the moment that we met
I knew that She was mine!

The Rainbow Bridge has taken her
To Catnip fields and Sun
To be a Kitten once again
Until All Time is Done

To you my Precious Sweetums
I loved You From The Start
My Love it does not end now
Because we had to part....

Forever And Beyond

November 1, 2006
==========================

BEYOND TEARS 

Every day Less tears may fall
You think your broken heart  ๐Ÿ’”  will mend

     And then you see her favorite toy 
And tears once more begin again

Youโ€™ve been through pain a lot before
You think this time Wonโ€™t hurt as much


     But every day that passes by
You miss the one you cannot touch

Your memories take you back in time
     The laughter - fun and play

The way you held her in your arms
The Love you shared each day   ๐Ÿ’•  

But now sheโ€™s gone - You cry alone  ๐Ÿ˜ข
       You canโ€™t believe itโ€™s true
Just yesterday love was here
And now Forever gone from you  ๐Ÿ’”

THE SECRET!

O Pussycat, Pussycat, Where do you go
When you disappear to where
ONLY you know?

I look under each bed
I crawl on the floor.....
I peek in each room
And behind every door!

I search everyplace
That a Kitty could hide
I've called and I've crawled---
I've lost all my pride!

I then try 'temptation'
And put out a treat
Then just sit and listen
For those little cat feet!

But, the silence prevails
No Purrrrrr do I hear
Though, something within says
You're really quite near!

I'm sure from some corner
You'll soon be emerging..
You'll come when YOU want...
And not from my urging!

So...where do you suppose
Those little toes go...
Where is that place
That only Cats know?

LOST & FOUND

WE GO THRU SO MUCH HEARTBREAK
WE ALWAYS WONDER WHY
WE ASK WHAT WE DID TO CAUSE IT
WE WONDER :     DID WE TRY?

WE QUESTION TEARS AND SORROW
WE TRY TO FIND A WAY
WE PONDER WHAT WE DID
FOR THE PRICE WE HAD TO PAY

WE GIVE AND GIVE OUR HEARTS
WE THINK IT IS FOREVER
WE THEN DISCOVER TRUTH
AND FOREVER TURNS TO NEVER

WE WONDER WHY THIS HAPPENED
WE QUESTION STARS ABOVE
WHY WHAT WE HAD WAS LOST
WHY NOW WE LOST THE LOVE

THERE ARE NO SIMPLE ANSWERS
PERHAPS IN SPACE AND TIME
FOR THOSE WHOSE HEARTS
ARE BROKEN
THERE IS NO PEACE OF MIND

THERE'S ONLY DAILY TURMOIL
OF PAIN AND GRIEF AND TEARS
WE WONDER WHEN IT ALL WILL END
IN DAYS ~ OR MONTHS ~ OR YEARS?

SO FOR THE TIME BEFORE US
THE GOAL IS JUST SURVIVE
TO MEND THE BROKEN WING
TO LET THE SPIRIT THRIVE

TO SEEK NEW PATHS & JOURNEYS
TO TRY AND FIND A WAY
TO BRIGHTEN UP THE SPIRIT
TO FACE EACH NEW BORN DAY

FOR LOVE ALONE THE ANSWER
THAT MENDS THE BROKEN HEART
THE LOVE MAY COME IN MANY WAYS
IF YOU ONLY LET IT START

THE MIND AND HEART MUST OPEN
TO SEE WHAT LIES BEFORE
TO REACH FOR ANY CHANCE
THAT MAY OPEN ANY DOOR

A PET,   A TREE ,   A SUNSET
ARE SOURCES OF THAT LOVE
IT COMES IN MANY FORMS
JUST WATCH THE STARS ABOVE

GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN!

August 2021

QRFLUFFL 
GONE BUT NEVER FORGOTTEN  [๐Ÿ’”]  


My heart is always hurting 
My tears they still do fall
We give them all our love
And They give us their all

We know From the very beginning
We know  from the very start
That  one day they will leave us
Breaking our loving heart  [๐Ÿ’”]  
I still canโ€™t believe I lost Q in June
Only eight years old that day
It happened so fast within two weeks
Never thought she would go away  [๐Ÿ˜ข]  
After the gallbladder surgery
She came home with 8 medicationโ€™s
Five days later she went to sleep 
In her pen in my bedroom
At least I thought she was sleeping  [๐Ÿ’”]  
Diamond  [๐Ÿ’]  In The Ruff
Is who I have now
But it isnโ€™t the same
Just different somehow

I am missing my Q
My Tears still falling
Sometimes in dreams
I hear her voice calling
From somewhere in Puppy Heaven
Wherever she now may be
My heart aches with memories
That sheโ€™s not here with me  [๐Ÿ˜ข]  h here.

And I've Been Convicted

Who Let The Cat Out Of The Bag?

โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹Every day Less tears may fall
You think your broken heart  [๐Ÿ’”]  will mend
     And then you see her favorite toy 
And tears once more begin again
Youโ€™ve been through pain a lot before
You think this time Wonโ€™t hurt as much
     But every day that passes by
You miss the one you cannot touch
Your memories take you back in time
     The laughter - fun and play
The way you held her in your arms
The  Love you shared each day   [๐Ÿ’•]  
But now sheโ€™s gone - You cry alone  [๐Ÿ˜ข]  
       You canโ€™t believe itโ€™s true
Just yesterday love was here
And now Forever gone from you  [๐Ÿ’”]

The Happiest People Do Not
Always Have The Best Of Everything ~

And I Wore Mine

And Mine Were Too
We Won First Place
In Look Alike Who?

Qrfluffl = Cat  [๐Ÿˆ]  in Drag

I have a little Puppy
Who thinks she is A Cat!
She uses Litter Boxes ~
Now What do ya think of that!

Sheโ€™s even hacked up HairBalls
Sleeps in Kitty Condo too
I think Her Inner Spirit says 
โ€œMeow Meow  [๐Ÿฑ]  Mew Mewโ€

๐Ÿ’”  WHY  ๐Ÿ’”

I end my day with crying  ๐Ÿ˜ข
I awaken in despair

And suddenly I remember
That sheโ€™s no longer there

I go through all the motions
Pretending itโ€™s all the same
But my broken heart + mind
Keep calling out her name

I find no rhyme or reason
Why it ended up this way

Never was she sick
Always full of play

Now I face the time alone
Without her by my side
Part of my soul has left
On the day my Precious Died  ๐Ÿ’”

                     QRFLUFFL 

Gone but never ever forgotten
My source of Unconditional love ๐Ÿ’•

PYFFL QRFLUFFL

Driving through the tears
Thoughts of my Precious One
Remembering all the years
The times of love and fun


But now my Q is gone
My heart is broken too 
The house is so empty
Without my precious Q

COWBOY CAPTURED AT LAST

WOOF WOOF FROM THE RAINBOW  [๐ŸŒˆ]  BRIDGE

                               โ€œQRFLUFFL โ€œ
     Sends Woofs Of Wonderful Memories
                  From The Great Beyond  [๐Ÿ•]

Suddenly, without Warning  I was called away
from the Earthly Realm  [๐ŸŒ]   @ Just 8 Years Old
.....  following Gallbladder Surgery

Leaving my Precious Guardian with a Broken Heart  [๐Ÿ’”]
                   And a $10,000 HOSP Bill  [๐Ÿ˜ฒ]

                          IN LOVING MEMORY  [๐Ÿ˜ข]
               Gone But Never Ever Forgotten  [๐Ÿ’—]

FOREVER & BEYOND

Forever and Beyond
The love that you feel
And the love that you show
Goes silently on
In the Truth that you know

In the Heart & The Mind ~
In the Grief that you bear
When it seems at the time
The World does not care

You know in your Heart
The Love that you shared
You know of the Friendship
You know that she cared

So in the Silence of Tears
In the Midnight while Crying
Remember That   Love
Think Not of the Dying!

=======================


Nobody Told Diamond [๐Ÿ’] โ€œ Smokin Is Bad For Ya!

If You Never Ask
You'll Never Know
If You Don't Push Start
You'll Never Go

You Cannot Finish
What You Never Begin
Don't Enter The Gate?
Then You Never Can Win
======================

I Lost My Beloved Cowboy 10/29/11

A Sudden Neurological Event
Ended Our 14 Year Love Affair

Cowboy Was The Purrrrfect Pom
He Could Do No Wrong
Never A Sick Day

Then Without Warning
He Was Gone

He Did It All!

Agility ~ Therapy For The Sick
Mountain Trails ~ Senior Centres

But Most Of All
A Cherished Companion
Always By My Side To Love
Bringing Laughter In Times of Sorrow

Those Memories Are Forever

Grief = The Price We Pay For Love



VIA~MYSTICA

In Latin means The MYSTIC WAY

German Shepherd

I Bred Via ~ Cut Her cord ~ Hand Fed Her

She Imprinted on me and we became
Inseparable Companions for 13 Love Filled Years

Via never did one thing worthy of reprimand
We communicated via ESP

Telepathically she would mentally tell me when she wanted to go out or wake me from a deep sleep by only Staring at me!

She was as Perfect as any Dog can be!
She could do No Wrong!

Via truly was a Gift from the Universe and the Memories of our time together will remain
Within my heart Forever ~


Run & Play
In The Fields Beyond
Dance Upon
The Clouds Of Time

Rest In Peace
Remember The Time
My Beautiful Love
When You Were Mine
