Presence

Gone, but not forgotten, steals a little of my heart, and no matter where I breathe we are never far apart. I see you at your icons; your little bed beside the fire, your favourite trees; the river; facing cats that raise your ire. Now even in our great divide, that both of us were dealt, without a word, or even thought, your presence can be felt.

How can we forget them and not feel their presence and we always will, for they steal a little bit of our hearts daily. Lovely poem, Be blessed always Lindsay Jennifer.

History books are filled with departed souls who still manage to make their presence known, but not always to one's comfort, so lucky you are! Aloha! Rico

G'day Rico … sometimes I feel that that little Mate is still with me. It's amazing how close we can become with a pet - thanks Rico - Lindsay
