Piddums was my late Grandmother's Cat. So very beautiful, loving and affectionate. When my Grandmother died 4 years ago, Piddums was adopted by my Parents.
Two years later, my Parents' House was completely destroyed by fire - within 20 minutes. The Firemen were able to get my Stepmother out, but not Piddums.
Piddums was a Hero. He actually saved my Stepmother's life but in doing so, forfeited his own.
Tragically and devastatingly, Piddums died in the fire, and no remains were ever found.
I just hope with all my Heart that he did not suffer...
Rest in Peace beloved Piddums. You will never be forgotten.
We Love You so much, and you are with my Grandparents now, happy and at peace.
Bless You.

P.S. Thank you to all those who have left Tributes and/or lit Candles.
It is much appreciated.
Our rooms are very still today,
The loneliness...a void;
That dented pillow mutely mourns
Companionship...destroyed!
That fluffy ball of purring fur--
My comfort--subtle teacher--
Has left a tender tolerance
For ever living creature.
My traits and faults were audited
By questioning, loving eyes;
All tests of friendship were fulfilled
By trust that verified.
--Nellie Baldwin Rudser

I shall walk in the sun alone
Whose golden light you loved:
I shall sleep alone
And, stirring, touch an empty place:
I shall write uninterrupted
(Would that your gentle paw
Could stay my moving pen just once again!).
⋱♰⋰
I shall see beauty
But none to match your living grace:
I shall hear music
But not so sweet as the droning song
With which you loved me.
⋱♰⋰
I shall fill my days
But I shall not, cannot forget:
Sleep soft, dear friend,
For while I live you shall not die.
⋱♰⋰
(Michael Joseph)

*ღ*
I walked a mile with Pleasure;
She chattered all the way,
but left me none the wiser
for all she had to say.
*ღ*
I walked a mile with Sorrow
And ne'er a word said she;
But oh! The things I learned from her
When Sorrow walked with me.
*ღ*

Silent Flight
In the silence
The clarity of your voice,
Climbs high
Upon the eagle's wings.
The chains of doubt
That imprison my soul,
Fall away beneath my feet.
In the freedom and majesty
Of the sentinel’s gaze,
Faith is strengthened
And hope returned
To a weary heart,
Upon the silent flight
Of eagle's wings.

♥═══♥ Send Me An Angel ♥═══♥
Copyright 2002 Vickie Lambdin
*ღ*
Lord, send me an angel
With a big set of wings,
So she can help me get over
The pain this life brings.
*ღ*
Give her a bright Halo,
When you send her down.
It will serve as our beacon,
Until we both touch the ground.
*ღ*
We'll fly over rainbows
And above the blue skies.
Then, we'll soar with the eagles
And chase butterflies.
*ღ*
We'll circle the mountains,
Then ride out the gales.
We'll descend above sailboats
And put the wind in their sails.
*ღ*
So, please send me an angel,
With a Halo and wings...
So she can lift me above
All the sad earthly things.

⋱♰⋰ I FLY ⋱♰⋰
I fly on the wings of morning
To see in heaven God's Beauty.
I fly on the wings of noon
To see on earth God's Power.
I fly on the wings of evening
To feel in my heart God's Silence.
I fly on the wings of night
To feel in my soul God's Bliss.

rising high into the sky,
and my heart whispered, yes, I salute you."

Angel Of Christmas Cheer
I hear a flutter in the breeze
There is snow upon the ground
All the leaves have fallen
Not a single one to be found.
So it makes me ponder
On this lovely winter day
Could it be an angel?
In the snow at play?
I go ahead and build my snowman
I work with cheerful hands
Carrot nose and button eyes
To make him look so grand.
I think I hear a little giggle
A flutter in the breeze
I look up to see, who might be here
But it's, just my snowman and me.
With all this Yule time cheer
On my face I have a smile
Soon we will be singing songs
As we gather around the fire.
It's nearly time to go in
I'll soon be snug in bed
As I dream of sugar plums
Dancing in my head.
Now it's Christmas Morning
We gather around the tree
I look out the frost window
My eyes just can't believe!
A beautiful smile on my snowman
My hands could have never achieved
I walked the same snow prints
That I had made that very night.
Only one going to it, one coming back
As I look at the snowy base
I see a folded note;
Looking so mystified
With wonder on my face,
As I read the words
This is what it said,
"I enjoyed the wonderful evening
Seeing the joy your heart does hold,
But, there is more to this message
To you, that must be told.
Always remember...
The reason for this season
The night that Christ was born
All those that gathered
In the manger long ago.
Always remember His love and giving ways
Then you can have Christmas, every single day
And if you don't mind...
I would love to come next year
At the bottom was signed,
"Your Angel of Christmas Cheer"

My Little One
If tears could wash away your trouble my little one
you would live forever.
If my cries of pain could relieve pain for you my little one
you would never again cry in pain.
If my prayers for you could keep you here my little one
you could never leave me.
If my love for you could comfort you my little one
you would be the happiest cat there is.
If missing you could bring you back my little one
you would be herre.
If I could take your hurts unto myself my little one
you would feel no pain.
If holding you in my arms could help you my little one
I would never let you go.
If doctors sorrows could help them my little one
they could perform miracles.
If your purrs could keep you happy and healthy my little one
I would never worry.
If your trust in me will help us my little one
we will get through this together.
If I can relieve your pain and suffering my precious little one
I will when you tell me its time.
Good bye my little one
I love you and miss you.

Precious Love
The agony is so great...
and yet I will stand it.
Had I not loved so very much...
I would not hurt so much.
But God knows I would not want to diminish
that precious love...
By one fraction of an ounce.
I will hurt...
And I will be grateful for that hurt
For it bears witness to the depth of my love.
And for that I will be eternally grateful.

Summerlands
Just the other side of death's curtain are the Summerlands. All the pets who have died go through this curtain and though they can still watch us, we can't see them. Sometimes the curtain is thin in places and we catch a glimpse of our lost companion waiting on the other side. Sometimes the curtain twitches as they look through at us and we can feel them or feel a sudden draft as the curtain falls back into place. The Summerlands exist in the long, lazy late afternoons of an eternal golden summer of remembered childhood; the time when everything seems most alive and sweetest smelling. Our animals are young again and turned to perfect health. There is always space and time to play and love, places to be with others and places to be alone together. When our time comes, the curtain is lifted from our eyes and we can see the Summerlands ourselves. Waiting there for us are the animals and people we loved in life and we can see them clearly at last. The time has come for us to move away from the curtain and renew these interrupted friendships. Sometimes we can't help but take a peek through the curtain just to see how our own loved ones are doing before they come to join us.
