A CLOUD PASSED OVER THE SUN TODAY
A cloud passed over the sun today
And left my world dark and grey.
My heart won’t sing.
My spirit can’t fly
and its all because we said goodbye.
Pepper we danced; we sang; we flew;
we traveled together
trusting each other to make it through.
You have gone but I can still feel you near me.
The residue of your spirit fills the room.
Your space near my door still warm with you.
Your aurora of your presence still engulfs
your smile, your loyalty, your open heart.
Will you remember our summer days at the fields?
Our walks around the neighborhood,
catching snow balls in the mouth,
chasing match box cars on the floor
all of this and so much more?
I will remember and you will shine through my tears….my beloved friend…..loyal through the years…..I look forward to the day that you will greet me again. And we will dance…Sleep well my angel….my Pepper Girl face.
