Poem dedicated to our Setters at Rainbow's End.

[Denise Hawkes]

A while ago my only girl Bonnie passed away. Whilst sitting by her grave, these words came to me, as I was just overwhelmed by the loss of her but the joy that I had from her life, and how she had changed my heart, for the better, and hopefully made me a better person!

A Change of Heart

I asked of God, ‘Will I see her again?’

He smiled, replying ‘Be still ,my friend’

‘In your dreams, forever more,

Every night, she’s there, be sure.’

 

I asked of God, ‘Will I hold her once more?’

Grinning, he laughed, ‘ your heart’s held  in  her paws!’

‘Rest assured, it will always be!’

Words to me so Heavenly

 

I asked of God, ‘Will I hear her again?’

He frowned and said, ‘This isn’t the end!’

‘You  hear her through life’s gentle thoughts,

And picture the precious journey you walked.’

 

‘Reflecting my Name, she taught you well,

My gift to you, a beautiful  girl.

Sent from  me, she changed your heart,

And both in me, you’re not apart. ‘

 

‘’Now you know , be loyal, give love, be a friend,

Through your life’s journey, do this, again and again.

And always remember, that right from the start,

A miracle began,

For we changed your heart.

Hi Terrie . Im so sorry you lost your boy Radleey. It is so hard when they go. I think that when they know we love them unconditionally and we know they love us unconditionally that this love lasts beyond a lifetime. Im glad you like the poem. I think that God gave me the words to comfort all of us who have lost precious ones. I hope they do.
