Lucy was our first greyhound, and my dearest heart dog. She taught me about love and compassion, and loyalty.

I wrote this poem when she died. :brokenheart

 

Lucy (Nasty Rose)

December 12, 1989 - December 2, 2002

 

Remembering Lucy

 

Soft eyes, gentle face

resting now in God's embrace

 

loyal companion, noble friend

we hoped your life would never end

 

a life so short, yet so profound

dearest companion, sweet greyhound

 

so much love have we for you

and you for us, we know that too

 

your final race was so unfair

we miss you so, it's hard to bear

 

though broken hearts in time may mend

we'll not forget our loyal friend

 

precious Lucy, we're so glad you came

our lives will never be the same.

 

:gh_run

 

With all our love, Bobby, Joslin, Cricket, Stormy and Skye

What a beautiful tribute to your precious girlie. I hope you'll post pictures someday of your hounds. :grouphug

Jeanne with Remington & Scooter the cat
....and Beloved Bridge Angels Sandee, Shari, Wells, Derby, Phoenix, Jerry Lee and Finnian.....
If tears could build a stairway, and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven
and bring you home again.

Regrettably, I have no digital pictures of Lucy (Nasty Rose). Does anyone know if old photos can be scanned in somehow?

That is a lovely poem.

 

If you have a access to a good quality scanner you can make a digital piccy out of your photo. I believe at the drugstores, at least Walgreens, they have a Machine that does this.
