This cat was fat and ruled the Ferrier Estate. With the stomach that cleaned the floor as it draped
and the name that was perfect, why wouldn't we cal it Garfield. Just 9 years when it died, suddenly,
we were shocked and had no explanation for his death. We believe it may have been poisoning through
the food chain, RATS!! A shock to us all, but then came Ebony. Not a replacement but another pet,
nobody could replace Garfield, loveyouloads.
Dancing Ribbons
Dancing ribbons pushed by time,
Float through an old kitten's dreams,
She chases them into eternity,
And catches them,
As they change into Angels'wings.
~Daryl Douglass Foyer, from Cat Fancy Magazine~
Beyond the Rainbow
As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.
I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.
I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.
For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.
(Written by CG - 1995)
WILD AND FREE
(P J Quick)
♥I hope you're running wild and free now you have gone to eternity,♥
♥Free from pain and young again as once you used to be.♥
♥I hope you're running wild and free, as free as the wind in the trees,♥
♥Playing and purring in ecstasy, or sleeping and dreaming at ease
♥I hope you're running wild and free, as free as the clouds in the sky,♥
♥Rushing excitedly, a kitten again, with eyes as blue as the sea.♥
♥I hope you're running wild and free, sometimes maybe remembering me,♥
♥For I know the time will come one day when we'll both be wild and free.♥
Precious Love
The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.
