for one who treads the shadow paths
those who know my niece 01, will have already seen the news, but this morning my furred 'niece', Michelle, one of the 3 companions in fur who are part of my extended family, passed to the shadowed paths from this life. she's now free from the pain that has been plaguing her due to breast cancer, but it still is hard to lose our furred friends.
I found this poem bit years ago when my beloved Pywicket passed to the shadow realm, but it is very fitting for this passing as her life before coming to my niece was long filled with pain.
Grieve not,
nor speak of me with tears,
but laugh and talk of me
as if I were beside you...
I loved you so -----
'twas Heaven here with you.
