I could not let this day go by without paying tribute to my wonderful border collie mix, Luba, who died suddenly five years ago today. She had a congenital heart defect which we were unaware of until it was too late.

This past year, I've thought less of Luba, and more of Falkor who I had to have put down last summer, but Luba remains in my heart, and always will. I hope the two dogs are happy together, and playing as they used to.

When Luba passed, I wrote this little bit:

"Every night as I fall asleep,
My sadness runs a bit less deep,
For I've come closer, by one day,
To when you and I again will play."

Well, I'm now 1, 825 days closer.

So much has happened these past five years, and yes, there has been joy along with pain. But my words on the tribute to you on our vet's website remain the same through it all. The message is simple, but true: I miss you "Little Dog".

That's a beautiful little poem. Rest in peace, Luba (and Falkor).

"I Am Your Angel"

No mountain's too high for you to climb.
All you have to do is have some Climbing Faith.
No river's too wide for you to make it across.
All you have to do is Believe it when you Pray.

And then you will see the Morning will come.
And every day will be Bright as the Sun!
All of your fears cast them on me.
I just want you to see.

I'll be your cloud up in the Sky.
I'll be your shoulder when you cry.
I'll hear your voices when you call me.
I Am Your Angel!

And when all hope is gone I'm here.
No matter how far you are I'm near.
It makes no difference who you are.
I Am Your Angel! I Am Your Angel!

I saw your teardrops and I heard you cry.
All you need is time ...
Seek me and you shall find.

You have everything and you're still lonely.
It don't have to be this way.
Let me show you a better day.

And then you will see the Morning will come.
And all of your days will be Bright as the Sun!
So all of your fears just cast them on me.
How can I make you see?

I'll be your cloud up in the Sky.
I'll be your shoulder when you cry.
I'll hear your voices when you call me.
I Am Your Angel!

And when it's time to face the storm ...
I'll be there by your side.
Grace will keep us safe and warm.
And I know we will Survive!

And when it seems as if your end is drawing near ...
Don't you dare give up the fight.
Just put your Trust beyond the Sky!

I'll be your cloud up in the Sky.
I'll be your shoulder when you cry.
I'll hear your voices when you call me.
I Am Your Angel!

Isn't it sad when they go so unexpectedly?

I am so sorry...and I loved your poem!
I know she hears it everytime you write it!
