Inspiración

My dear pet dachshund, Trudy, who died September 2, 2005. She was always a kindred spirit to me, and I don't think kindred spirits ever go away. She's still here, waiting for me to walk with her to heaven someday.


ODE TO I CHING
By Tony D'Agnese

Close your eyes now,
my longtime friend,
and let this
time of suffering
come to a peaceful end.
We'll walk together
soon, I'm sure,
as winter turns to spring,
when snow gives way
to budding leaves
and birds begin to sing.
The gentle breeze
shall call your name
along the water's edge.
For what you meant
and what we shared
shall never be forgot.
Your friendship spans
the years behind,
your memory ahead.
You'll always be
there next to me,
companion and good friend.
