Ginger is in the House Today
I think she is visiting today
Feel her presence
Sometimes I think I see her on the bed
My baby has been gone for 64 days
Not so long considering I had her for 15 1/2 years
i don't know how you process the death of a dog
Most days are benign now that the shock has passed
Still I miss her
The top of her head always smelled like french toast
Her ears were velvety and bliss
I miss you girl
You were always faithful and protected our home
We tried to do the same for you
Come back any time
Your food bowl is where it always was
We can't see fit to remove it
Sometimes I think I should fill it up
Get down on all fours and take a drink
You live my love
You live

You live

Oh Poet. It's difficult, but she's definitely there. Pay attention to her toys. 🐶

Fifteen and a half years is very good. As you probably know, some animals take themselves away to a secluded spot when they are not feeling well. Maybe that is the case here. Very sad to hear your reminisces, writing it too, I'm sure.
Love the 'french toast' description. Aah. :-(

My Poe...I believe she is there always, just more prevalent at certain times...how could she not be...you were all she ever knew...perhaps she was missing you quite a bit and needed you to know she thinks of you often as well...because she knew YOU needed that for whatever reason...I'll stick with that thought...
Hugs and love to you like

Hopefully her being there brought you calm. Pets always know when we need calmed down and reassured.
