"Solomon" 1995 - 1999. You came to my front door, accompanied by my friend and her husband, I had not met you before, and you were about 18 months old.    You and I , immediately, fell in love with each other, and you did not leave my side during the whole of the visit. Upon my friends leaving, I went to get your leash, which was hanging on the doorknob, and my friend hastily said, we won't need that because, you get on so well together, we are leaving him in your tender care.   May heart leaped with joy. From that day on we were, inseperable, you and I, we were best pals, we went everywhere together, went for rides in the country, played games when the weather was too wet to go outside, snuggled up to each other, when the weather was cold, My Solomon! You were named Solomon, because you were wise, you knew I was deaf, and you would go to the phone, or the front door, to let me know if there was anyone there, running backwards and forwards, until you got my attention. Then we took a long journey together, it took us two days to get to our destination, we were not there too long, when you became ill ....I rushed you to the "Doctor" but, alas I was too late. I miss you My Solomon, my Love for you, I always will keep, deep in my heart, until again we do meet.   ©MarinaCook   Design & HTML by Marina @ VenablesArchives
