Your unforeseen death came so very swift
ripping into my soul a deep ugly rift
you were so innocent, such a gentle, sweet gift
my shattered heart broken, my dreams now must shift
as back through precious memories I lovingly drift
grief tugs hard my heart, lil’ buddy, you’re so missed!
On 3/6/21 I lost lil’ Edgrrr, my forever buddy!
….and the pain of loss of Edgrrr will linger long, I fear. So sorry, Rob!
Thank you Bev… I’m feeling better. Choke up only occasionally now.

Oh Rob, I am so sorry. On Sunday it will be 13 years since our little dog died. I feel the grief infused in your quadrille.

I’m so sorry. Losing a pet is a big thing. They nestle in our hearts, don’t they? This is a lovely, heartfelt tribute. Bless him, he looks so gorgeous.

Thank you Ron… I’m feeling better. Choke up only occasionally now.
You lkow this question has no answer, right? It just is. I would never say “Just get used to it”, but I will say this: There is no answer to this question, or –if there is — it’s this: Edgrrr was sent to remind you (remind us ALL) that all things are temporary, are to be enjoyed while present, remembered after they disappear, and to teach us to be as alive as we can be, be as kind as we can be to others because — like Edgrrr, they (ie we all) are only temporary.
Ooooommmmmm
Thank you Ron… I’m feeling better. Choke up only occasionally now. Edgrrr was sent to all of us here, especially me, to remind that no matter our own problems — love is still genuine, and a precious gift we give each other, and unconditional love is very rare. Mindfully treasure it while you have it!
It hits so fast and so hard! So sorry for your loss.
Thank you Xan!
Edgrrr ~ in time memories will surface … the very best of them. Take care Rob.
