> You came as a pup, anxious to please and in a moment, my heart you did seize. Your eyes belittled the size of your frame, so I knew Isaac would have to be your name. All so wise, I knew you would be, protector of your tribe, that would be me. Ahh, I loved seeing you grow, playing and jumping in Colorado snow. Then we traveled here and there, and never did you show that you would care. For as long as we were together was all you asked, our love for each other was scarcely masked. My brother did sculp in stone, your shapely head, but every night you would lay by my bed. In all my troubles, you were always by my side, surely you knew we would survive. There will never be another quite like you, for to you and you to me, there was only love so very true. In memory of Isaac, to whom the sage was burnt, whiffed by the eagle feather to speed his way.

But the images brought to life in your words were more than enough for eyes to see, my friend. Lovely thoughts, lovely write... Besides...don't feel bad, you don't see images with my stuff because I haven't been able to make it work yet either...I just edit the boo-boo out faster than you...hee, hee. jwesley [This message has been edited by jwesley (edited 08-13-2001).] |

Oh Gosh, thats so exactly how I felt (and still do, 3 years later) about my Mia kitty, she was my baby for 19 years almost. And now gone, and it still makes me cry. Beautiful writing Logan, filled with love. Sandra |

Your words are more than the pictures, but we do glimpse the source of your inspiration... all animals should be held in high regard...yes even mosquitos...they feed the birds! |

this moved me, fewer things are as traumatic as losing a beloved pet. [This message has been edited by shadow of the fall (edited 08-15-2001).] |
