Dedicated To The Memory Of Dreamer.

The stray that came in to our lives only 4 short years ago.

The love we had for you was as if it were a life time.

Please know that when you left that love went with you.

We miss so many things about you.

You always knew when it was time for bed.

As soon as I would turn back the covers

you were right there laying on the top sheet.

I had to remind you it was "Mama's bed".

I miss you sleeping next to me and

singing from the bottom of your soul.

I even miss you attacking my foot when I would stretch out too far.

I miss you looking up at me and batting those beautiful green eyes

while trying to charm me out of my food.

And that face! Oh how I loved that face.

And how you loved me telling you that.

You would again give me the batting of the eyelashes.

Just like a woman.

You fought so bravely against the cancer that finally

took your life on November 16th at 7:00 a.m.

I know how you hated the two surgeries I put you through

but I didn't know what we were up against.

I am so sorry. I just wanted you to live and be back to normal.

But that never happened.

My heart would break when you walked

on that little leg so swollen with cancer.

I know you wanted to stay in the only home you ever had.

And we tried so hard to keep you with us that last month and a half.

Fighting for your life right up to the end.

We have so many memories of you Dreamer.

If only we could turn back the hands of time.

I don't know if there is a place over the Rainbow

but if there is I know we will meet one day and

have all eternity in a place free of pain and suffering.

A place where I can once again kiss that sweet face I loved so dearly.

Goodnight my sweet pet until we meet again.
