Prissy by Crystal

It has been already seven years

since my beloved Prissy left.

She was just getting too old

and she also had a tumor on her heart.

We tried everything we could to make

her last days so comfortable.

One day while I was at school

she just couldn't handle it anymore

so mama took her to the vet

and

she was put to sleep.

Mama came and got me early

from school and then she told me.

I thought maybe she was just kidding but when I got home.

I went to Prissy's bed and she wasn't there.

I asked mama where she was and

she took me to the place

where she had buried her.

I sat there by my baby's grave

for the rest of the day

and way on into the night.

I knew the time was coming

but I just couldn't make myself believe

that it had really happened.

I know I should be over it by now

but I'm not.

I still get up in the middle of the night

and sit by my window looking at her grave

wishing and hoping

that she would just come back

but I know it's only wishful dreaming

and

it could never happen!

I just hope that she is having a wonderful time

up in heaven playing

with all the other dogs and cats.

I just hope she knows how much I love her

and I think about her all the time.

She is still in my heart and she will always be there.

I love you my precious Prissy girl.
