When You Were Here
You came to me the usual way a surprise gift... that fateful Mother's Day Just a small, curious, wriggly pup... placed in my arms In such a short time I was seduced by your charms The days did pass as you played and grew I think you taught me as much as I thought I taught you Love..and trust... did come slowly at first But, there for each other, we saw our best...and our worst I was as smitten with you as you were for me and together we faced each day with such wonder..such glee All good things, though, must come to an end as it did for you too...my dear, sweet, little friend As you started to slow down, and often didn't hear me I turned a blind eye, not accepting , refusing to see If I had looked to the future and had seen that tomorrow would I have changed such fate...to avoid impending sorrow? I know I would not...what memories we've had The good times, the bad times...both happy and sad Yes, I would gladly do it all over again We'll be together, forever, and not..."if"... just "when" You're no longer here to brighten my day But you sent me an Echo to help lead the way My love for you now on loan to her She and I now almost as close... as you and I once were Yes, my love, my heart did go on, When I look at her I almost forget that you're gone She's so much like you... each day she reveals more What secrets she's keeping, you'll both tell me ...I'm sure Happy Birthday Leibchen Lei-Lei would have been seventeen years old today. A great big Happy Birthday to also goes out to Echo, who is four years old today! Thank you Lei-Lei...and thank you too, Echo. -------------------- Not goodbye.....just until
Marmy always comes back for you Leibchen March 12,1994 - November 15,2006 |

Peace and blessings, moon_beam -------------------- In heaven's perfect garden there is no grief or pain, and all of God's creation join the angels' sweet refrain.
The most blessed way I have of knowing God's comforting love and grace is to look into the eyes and heart of God's creatures' sweet angelic face. |
