If only you were here
I remember you were dear to everyone. You were the first to welcome every body. You were very fond of children. After returning from School, they first asked for you. They hugged you, kissed you and pampered you. You jumped into the warmth and comfort of their bed. But if an elderly one entered, you jumped and hid behind some door.You loved to play Hide and Seek.When you fell ill we panicked.We could feel your pain.You left us craving for you. Death does not spare anyone.We miss you, our dog Elsa. Wish you were here.

ReplyDeleteI was in the process of migrating back to India and was too tied with the matters of change.
I hope you are relaxed now.

DeleteBTW why have you named your name Mahabore.I have read your posts. will call you maha happy.
Oh! I can imagine the void she must have left, Mrs Menon.
ReplyDeleteYes Corinne. The void can never be filled.
DeleteI can understand how much you miss your dog. A dog is more than a family member, its place in our life can never be explained.A is the only animal they can make us understand what is known as "unconditional love". We might get mad sometimes with our dogs, but they don't turn their face against us, we have to only smile they would come running to us, as if nothing had happened.
ReplyDeleteWe have had two lovely dogs and both of them died, and now our third dog is our lovely Bumbilli, who is very naughty, yet very lovable.
Rama, the pain that the family experienced was unbearable.
DeleteSo sad it is to lose a pet. Loved the way you described the love. :)
ReplyDeleteThank you Jyothi. The pain that we experienced was unbearable. I am glad you liked it.
DeleteTouchingly-written.Yes, mortality is the only immortal thing in this world.
ReplyDeleteThank you sarala.
