For My Dear Luba Options

[Steph]

Do not stand
At my grave and weep,
I am not there,
I do not sleep,
I am
a thousand winds that blow.
I am
the diamond glints on snow.
I am
the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am
the gentle autumn's rain.
When you awaken
in the morning's hush,
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am
the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry:
I am not there. I did not die.

I don't know who wrote this - but I like it.

I love you Luba.

Libby and Steph, thank you for the soft shoulder to cry on over the last few days, it did me good to vent, i just can't thank you all enough. I went and got a prescription yesterday and hopefully as the days go by, it will get easier, i know it will, but i have a hard time letting it. Libby, i understand where you're coming from when you say you weren't for sure what to do with Dieter after he passed, my sister did what you did, she couldn't bare to bring her dog home after 13 years only to put him in the back yard and not in the living room on his own doggy bed, so now i think i need to tell myself that Littlebit is happy and running around with Luba, Dieter, Zoey, BabyHannah, and all the other sweet little furbabies in this site, it would take me all day just to list them, they are all angels now, so i guess what i'm trying to say is it is finally time to let Littlebit go. She knows how much i love her and i know she is truly truly happy, so how can i be so selfish and try holding her back, we will be together in time again, i must go on for her. To all of you who wrote all those beautiful poems, thank you, you are not only expressing your feelings for your babies, you are helping me because every word in those poems describe my heart. Thank you all and God bless.
