to remember
summer in winter
the ocean in the desert
the breath of mountains
behind four walls
the tiniest good fortune
in the midst of tears _

(my sweet, gentle, Golden Jake had knee surgery on Wednesday
he is having a difficult time and healing is going to be a hard and long process
I will be a full-time nurse to Jake over the next 2 months and I will not be posting over that time ... I shall be back to regular posting around the middle of October ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~ be well, dear blogging friends ~ xo )
Rose and Jake are the best of friends
Rose was very sad when we picked him up after surgery ~
Hi Margie .. take care and take as much time as you need looking after your Jake ... and sincere wishes that he gets better very soon ...
ReplyDeleteLove your poem for this period in your lives ... remembering the beyond ... with thoughts - Hilary
I will keep you and Jake in my prayers, dear Margie, and your poem is fantastic. Many people take Vitamin D, especially in winter, due to the "downs" they experience from the lack of sunlight.
ReplyDeleteYour poem is beautiful and sunshine in my heart, as I am sure, in many other hearts.
Margie, I'm so sorry to hear about Jake. I hope he heals quickly and is soon feeling much better. Your poem is beautiful! Take care, and I will look forward to your return in October.
ReplyDeleteMargie, give Jake a big gentle hug from me!
ReplyDeletePoor guy! I know you will be a great nurse!
Love your poem!
I will miss you ;o)
