My Boxer
Boxer Insane
This has been the longest year of my life, the year you went to the bridge my sweet Greta.
It seems like only yesterday that you crumpled to the ground as we started out on our walk, you turned your head towards me as I called your name. You were so excited to go for our walk. I called your name as you took your last breath. It seems like it was only yesterday that you were a wee pup when me and Sabrina picked you out of the litter. Or should I say you picked us out. As soon as the gate was put down, out you ran, right towards us. It was a tumbling pack of puppies, but you were out in front and pulled on Sabrina's pant's and shoe laces! Oh what a perfect day that was. It was love at first site. On the way home, there was a double rainbow, and you snuggled in Sabrina's arms like you had done it before. If one can be soulmates with a dog, we were soulmates. You were always by my side, always looking at me, and following me everywhere. Sometimes I still feel your presence, and even call out your name and wait, but then I remember you are not here. As you know, I have a new Boxer boy. He is nothing like you. I suppose that is a good thing. He never listens, chews like crazy, especially my glasses, chases Ruby, and annoys Skipper. But every once in a while, I see you in his eyes. I miss and love you sweet Greta. Be happy and run free till we meet again, and once again you run into my arms, and I bury my face in your neck and cover your sweet face with kisses.
