OBITUARY FOR TWO FRIENDS | |
|
Suddenly there was a urgent scent
stronger than ever before and little Skutt lifted up his nose anxiously sniffing in the wind He was reluctant to leave us so he lingered on for one day and one night - turning to us with his look of appeal as needing our help to make up his mind Then the scent grew more importunate and he left us just before dawn The house felt incredibly silent and dark with him being no longer there |
Only three days later
old Sniff got the same distant call We had to help him a bit on the way and he thanked us by gently wagging his tail Then turning around and strolling away to a warmer place than this earth The last year he was worn out and tired so we hope he has found somewhere better to stay - in a meadow where the sun never ceases to shine and the grass is forever green |
