puppy love

when i lay down to sleep last night i had the feeling of overwhelming sadness take over my whole body. i felt my eyes fill up with enough tears to burst the banks of any river and as i felt them take over my eyes and start to run down my face i had never felt so alone in my life but then i looked over at a pair of the most amazing big brown eyes that looked at me with the innocence of a new born baby.

this very sweet young man  was sitting on my pillow as close as he could be and as i looked at him he gave me the most special gift in the world.  he very gentily and ever so tenderly washed away each and every tear on my face and brought a smile to my lips.  he made me feel so much better. i felt a really warm feeling in my heart that only a beloved canine friend can give.  Murphy had worked his magic on me.

  1. I'm so sorry! =( I hope there are lots of things to chase, and snuggles to be had on the other side of the rainbow bridge for Murphy. Big, big hugs. I've lost pets before and we love them like children. It's so hard.

    When our beloved kitty, Zorro, got hit by a car in 2005, I ended up making him a huge hero in a novel I wrote-I kept everything about him the same though-his name, nickname, temperament, coloring, everything. It helped me to grieve and let him go to where he needed to go.

    Much love and biggly hugs,
    Cheri
