Today it is 9 months since I said goodbye to my earthly body. As I see more of my brothers and sisters arriving here at Rainbow Bridge I feel the sadness inside my mum’s heart as she sheds tears for all of their packs and for herself and for me.
I had a whole heap of stuff I was going to say but suddenly words just aren’t enough. I know my mum is missing me a lot right now and hurting.
Mum, forgive yourself. Be happy. Love yourself, love my step dad, love Ruby, love me. Let the tears of sorrow keep making way for tears of joy for the wonderful life we had together, the precious memories we made, the love we shared, continue to share. I know you miss me. I know it has been more than two months since you last felt me near you, as you, Ruby and I enjoyed the companionable silence of a balmy summer evening. But just because you don’t feel me nearby doesn’t mean I’m not there. You know that I will always be with you, in your heart and by your side. Love never dies.
This is for you mum…
Miss Me – But Let Me Go
Edgar A Guest
When I come to the end of the road
and the sun has set for me
I want no rites in a gloom filled room
why cry for a soul set free?
Miss me a little – but not too long
and not with your head bowed low
remember the love that we once shared
Miss Me – But Let Me Go.
For this is a journey that we all must take
and each must go alone
it’s all a part of the Master’s plan
a step on the road to home.
When you are lonely and sick of heart
go to the friends we know
and bury your sorrows in doing good deeds
Miss Me – But Let Me Go
