My dear friend, Florence Clark, has shared with me that her beloved dog, Daisy, left earth in May. I wrote about Daisy on Appalachian Morning in 2009, you can see the article here. Since 2009, Flo has keep me posted on Daisy's wonderful antics and also her loving spirit as she has been such a support and help to Flo over the years. I've seen the photos, drawings, paintings, and sculptures Flo has done of Daisy and celebrated with her the transformation of the spirit of love into the visible form of works of art. And celebrated Daisy, who will be very much missed.
Here are some images and a poem from Flo.
BABY GIRL #4
I spend most of my time alone
alone..but not
lonely:
WE are almost always
Together
We know everything about
each other
WORDS are not necessary,
although I believe you understand
Everything.
You and I understand
the meanings in:
The smallest
movements-
the softest sounds-
the daily routines-
of our other
-The
You-
that is the other half of
-We-
The one who
knows
Everything
About me

Lovely poem! Sometimes I feel that losing a faithful pet leaves the deepest emptiness. Revel in the good memories.
I lost my dog may 5th,a year ago.Not a day goes by I don"t
think of him. If you have not heard of, or read the poem
"rainbow Bridge" you should do so. It was comforting to me.
