Dont know if I posted this before or not, but thought it fitting as we remember
those who have gone on before us this Memorial Day weekend...
"Treat me kindly, my beloved master; for no heart in all the world is more
grateful for kindness than the loving heart of me. Do not break my spirit with
a stick, for althought I should lick your hand between the blows, your patience
and understanding will more quickly teach me the things you would have me do.
Speak to me often, for your voice is the worlds sweetest music, as you must
know by the fierce wagging of my tail when your footsteps fall upon my waiting
ear..
When I it is cold and wet, please take me inside...for I am a domesticated
animal, no longer used to bitter elements...and I ask no greater glory than the
privilege of sitting at your feet beside the hearth...though you had no home, I
would rather follow you through ice and snow than rest upon the softest pillow
in the warmest home in all the land, for you are my God and I am your devoted
worshiper.
Keep my pan filled with fresh water, for although I should not reproach you
were it dry, I cannot tell you when I suffer thirst. Feed me clean food, that I
may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding; to walk by your side, and
stand ready willing and able to protect you with my life; should your life be
in danger.
And, beloved Master, should the Great Master see fit to deprive me of my
health or sight, do not turn me away from you. Rather, hold me gently in your
arms as skilled hands grant me the merciful boon of eternal rest...and I will
leave you knowing with the last breath I drew, my fate was ever safest in your
hands."
Beth Harris
Everyone hug your furkids tight...they are with us for such a short time.
