The Nearness of You

Baby girl. Sweetest soul, always beside me, always there. Your brother raised you in love and your days here were always giving back. The smile, or the motherly consternation of your gaze —always wise. Taken too soon we have missed your presence. You are swimming in pristine waters now and running in the best of green fields with your beautiful Django now. Duke has your humbled teachings and our thread of life has its continuance and your legacy of German Shepherd will never be lost. Weathering hard times we made it real by every day better happenings and times spent with tails wagging. Long walks creekside and long drives with smiles out the window —memories grand. Silky smooth and beautiful you would always get the charmed affection - never once did I not feel proud of being your human. You gave me the best lessons right to your last breath and I am eternally grateful for your life and the reasons knowing why it is to be lived. Every day is a sacred blessing and a gift  ... I am truly blessed that you shared your days with me. Rest in Peace.
