Life Lessons from Carlie
Author's Note
This is an ode and tribute to my friend, Nicole, Carlie's mom. She, who was made into a terrific friend of mine because her dogs decided that they loved me like their very own; is a tough, gracious and extremely amazing human being. There aren't enough adjectives to describe what she means to me and hopefully the same applies in return. These are her words that she shared with me. I created this visual poem for her out of them. She absolutely nailed my bff Carlie, to a T. I felt compelled to share it, hopefully it's legible enough to read....

I agree and so does Buster, at least that's what he told me, but he's a joker so I'm not sure.
It's lovely piece, Carlie ws pretty to come up with it, Buster is jealous though :)

Ohh super pets and belly rubs for Buster! He needn't be jealous, I bet he's got some doozies ready to go, hidden in his back pocket, for just the right time!!
Thanks for the uplift, my new friend... much need and very much appreciated - 💙

😊, yea Buster is something else,, all I have to do is look at him a certain way and he knows we're going walking,,, there's a whole list of words that I can't mention cause he knows them..
I've had dogs in the past, nearly always had dogs, some were clever enough, but not one of them was as smart as Buster is. It's really amazing.
I could write a book about him, so much to say, so much he gives every day. He truly is a miracle.
I hope you find that kind of love again Blue

a passing
profoundly felt
for they become
are family
entrenched in
your heart
big soulful eyes
that greet
as if they
had been missing
a part of themselves
now whole
knowing
when your sad
give instant comfort
love and protection
because you
are their family
snuggles
belly rubs
forbidden snacks
those special moments
that forever capture
your heart
it's two way love
unconditional
true trust
hairy angels
that would never
hurt

Hey you, this is great! It's like a checklist and I found myself going "yup, yup, yup"!
Maybe I can print it and put it on my fridge, so I don't run over people!
You just may have saved a life, or ten. Whew!
I love it. It's way better than a bible.

It's a wonderful tribute, not just only of the spirit but of life and how it should be free and happy. It's heart tugging.
Excellent work.

Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts with me, W. I appreciate you reading these two posts about my doggo bff's. To have their era come to an end this year, still leaves a hole. I was so very lucky to have them in my life all these previous years.... it's so strange to me that that is over.... I count myself bettered for it and once healed, I plan to donate more of my time to volunteering, to fill that vacuum their loss has left.
Much obliged, dear friend 🙏🏻
