| This candle burns in memory of Shadow |
| I wrote the following quickly a few nights ago. I'm usually not one for the rhyming poems, but it seemed to work... Lay down your head now little one, you no longer have to fight. Rest your weary, tired soul 'till the morning light. Cry not for me as I do for you, for you're in a better place. Not one more day of fear or pain will you ever have to face. If so far away it ever seems, just take a little nap. Send a gentle purr to me, and we'll meet in each other's dreams. Shannon Lemley |

| JUNE 4th 2000 Our brave little fighter in hospital the day before we had him put down, giving me one of his last (of this world) head butts, How I long for more.... |

IF IT SHOULD BE If it should be I grow frail and weak, And pain should wake me from my sleep, Then you must do what must be done, For this last battle can't be won. You will be sad - I understand, Don't let your grief then stay your hand, For this day, more than the rest, Your love and friendship stand the test. We've had so many happy years, What is to come will hold no fears You'd not want me to suffer...so, Take me where all my needs they'll tend, But stay with me until the end, And hold me firm, and speak to me, Until my eyes no longer see. I know in time you too will see, It is a kindness you do for me, Although my tail is last waved, From pain and suffering I have been saved. Do not grieve that it should be you, Who must decide this thing to do. We've been so close - we two- these years, Don't let your heart hold any tears. Author unknown "Someone very special passed through your life and made it a better place and you a better person, perhaps, for knowing him. I hope one day I will also have a chance to meet him when we all meet at Rainbow Bridge - since I'm 49 - I'm going to get there first - LOL - and I hope he will let me give him a little hug until you come to collect him." By Sue LOSING YOU Everyone thinks I'm over losing you That I've dealt with it, that I've moved on But in reality, You are with me constantly, Never far from my thoughts I am only pretending I am okay You are so much a part of me, As if your blood flows thru my veins, As if I breathe for both of us now, As if my heart beats for two. Your spirit will forever remain in my soul I will never be completely without you, Two halves intertwined. Half of me will always be missing For the rest of my life I will Never be whole again.
