I said goodbye, my friend when I did not want to say
goodbye. I know it will take time and strength before things feel
quite right. Just for now, I need to mourn. My heart needs to mend.
MY FRIEND IS GONE.
I am grateful that we lived, loved and touched each
other's lives. You taught me how to love and how to open my heart and eyes to
things I would never see or feel without you. My life was fuller because you
were there my faithful friend.
Thank you, beloved gentle Spirit of Light, for bringing
me love and joy.
You have brought much laughter to our home, and richness to my days. You have been my constant companion and
friend through joy or loss with gentle, loving ways. I
cannot see you, or touch you, but I know you will be near.
My delightful, valiant little Belgium,
you will live forever in my heart.
I know that today you are as you were in your youth. There is no sickness, no aching joints, no regrets and no aging. You are where the grass is always green, butterflies flit among the flowers and the sun shines gently down
upon you. Your health renewed, you can run, jump, play and do all of the things
that you did in your youth.
Though I will grieve a while for you
because grieve I must, I will always cherish the moments locked within my heart. Then
one day when I must come this way alone, our souls will meet at the edge of the Rainbow Bridge. I know you will be waiting to greet me with a smile.
And you will say as we embrace with a love that will last forever, "Welcome home" my friend.
Then,
side-by-side, we will cross over the Rainbow Bridge…together.
