To my brave sweet soul.
The depths of my heart ache for you.
Your eyes tell a story longer than you’ve lived.
Piercing through the rays of light straight into my belly.
Those big brown beauties swell with pain.
As they flush your sorrows back into the earth.
Where delicate blossoms now surround your feet.
Look outward, and see the world is still a soft place.
Turn your gaze around, and you will feel your heart still beats whole.
The gift of praise you’ve shed, will send him traveling on his way home.
*King was our ten year old daughter’s pet hamster, he passed away last night.
