Claude.
Claudey Pops.
How I miss you, wee feller.
I miss your zen karma and your calm togetherness.
I miss our brotherly wrestles…although you were sometimes a bit rough with me.
I miss the little stripe down your face
(wee skunk face)
I miss your cheeky monkey attitude ~ especially when you were just learning that you didn’t have to be a thief any more.
I have learned so much from you ~
your determination was incredible.
I miss the morning wake up with your kisses and affection. The most affectionate little spirit I have ever known.
You were (are) truly beautiful, little Claude du Pop and I wish you were fit and well and with me now. But, I know that can not be. I comfort myself feeling sure that you are free from pain and that your little spirit will go on making happy all those who are blessed enough to know you.
I hope we’ll meet again, Claudey.
