A Teddy Bear Does Not Depend Upon

One Small Cat Changes Coming Home To An Empty House To Coming Home.

We Shared. Parents. Home. Pets. Celebrations. Catastrophes. Secrets. And The Threads Of Our Experience Became So Interwoven That We Are Linked. I Can Never Be Utterly Lonely, Knowing You Share The Planet.

Brooks Too Wide For Our Leaping, Hedges Far To High. Loads Too Heavy For Our Moving, Burdens Too Cumbersome For Us To Bear. Distances Far Beyond Our Journeying. The Horse Gave Us Mastery.

You Took Me To Adventure And To Love. We Two Have Shared Great Joy And Great Sorrow. And Now I Stand At The Gate Of The Paddock Watching You Run In An Ecstasy Of Freedom, Knowing You Will Return To Stand Quietly, Loyally, Beside Me.
