Buddy
You were a greedy gus
forcing me to eat at arms length.
You showed you had the fiery courage of falcons
flowing through your veins as you strutted down my
chest to do battle with blanket monster
In the worst of times when you were maddest you
never never bit with all your force.
You gave me unconditional love, which I will never
forget.

Go with our love, our friend. |
My biggest love, Conrad... lost in
May of 2006.
He remains everywhere around me, on
me, and I see him still, making my heart jump, fast turn of
my head to the spot of yellows, greens, blues, oranges. I
remain hopeful, hazily, that I see him again. I love
him so.

Words of Comfort
I give you this one
thought to keep,
I am with you still, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand
winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow.
I am the sunlight on
ripened grains,
I am the gentle autumn 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 think of me
as gone,
I am with you still in each new dawn.

Prayer
The Lost Birds
Their cheerful squawks are far from silenced
They live on in the laughter of those they knew
And the tears we cried upon their departure
Will forever live on in the morning dew
And every gentle kiss behind our ears or on our cheeks
Will forever be immortalized by the sweet summer breeze
We just have to listen and let ourselves feel them
For they are forever with us showing their love
They are on our shoulders even while we mourn them
Comforting us through the times we'd need them most
Waiting for us until we can be there with them
Lending faint caresses and company
Our lost birds protect us from harm while we are living
And lead us to peace when we die
- Steff Kotai
Hope is a
thing with feathers
That perches
in the soul,
And sings the
tune without the words,
And sweetest
in the gale is heard;
And sore must
be the storm
That could
abash the little bird
I've heard it
in the chillest land,
And on the
strangest sea;
Yet, never, in
extremity,
It asked a
crumb of me.
- Emily
Dickinson
