Tinker was my first (and to date, only) guinea pig. He had been in the pet shop 3 months we were
told, as people kept choosing the younger ones and passing him by, but to us, that made him even
more special.
He was a little character, and squeaked like mad, asking for food, when his daddy (my boyfriend)
said a certain word ("Hiya!"). Or if he heard a plastic bag rustling, he automatically associated
that with food, and stood on his hind legs, asking for treats. He had tantrums when he didn't get
his own way, jumping in the air and stamping his feet.
He passed away only earlier this month, and it just isn't the same without him, I miss the noises
that drove me crazy (when he used to make a racket on his water bottle!) and I miss his lovely brown
eyes.
(Update 12/12/08) Well, I have now finally managed to transfer my old video footage to the computer
my darling, and can update your page with your lovely face. Hope you are having fun with all your
cavie pals. xxxxxxx
Oh baby, I will never forget that night, you slipped away in my arms with Jan next to me. I hope I
didn't scare you too much with my crying, I just couldn't believe you were leaving me, you gave me
no sign it was your time baby. I love you so much.
♥♥♥♥♥ Beyond the Rainbow ♥♥♥♥♥
As much as I loved the life we had and all the times we played,
I was so very tired and knew my time on earth would fade.
I saw a wondrous image then of a place that's trouble-free
Where all of us can meet again to spend eternity.
I saw the most beautiful Rainbow, and on the other side
Were meadows rich and beautiful -- lush and green and wide!
And running through the meadows as far as the eye could see
Were animals of every sort as healthy as could be!
My own tired, failing body was fresh and healed and new
And I wanted to go run with them, but I had something left to do.
I needed to reach out to you, to tell you I'm alright
That this place is truly wonderful, then a bright Glow pierced the night.
'Twas the Glow of many Candles shining bright and strong and bold
And I knew then that it held your love in its brilliant shades of gold.
For although we may not be together in the way we used to be,
We are still connected by a cord no eye can see.
So whenever you need to find me, we're never far apart
If you look beyond the Rainbow and listen with your heart.

Dreams ~
Please don't think you are alone
because I've left your sight,
for I proudly sit atop a cloud
and visit you each night.
The angel paws upon your skin,
and the nudge within your palm
are really me inside your dreams
the quiet hours before dawn.
Please know I'm waiting for you,
but until your time arrives
I'll be the touch and comforting
the dreams that fill your mind.

Please See Me Through My Tears
by Kelly Osmont
You asked, "How am I doing?"
As I told you, tears came to my eyes...
and you looked away and quickly began to talk again.
All the attention you had given me drained away.
"How am I doing?"...I do better when people listen,
though I may shed a tear or two.
This pain is indescribable.
If you've never known it you cannot fully understand.
Yet I need you.
When you look away,
When I'm ignored,
I am again alone with it
Your attention means more than you can ever know.
Really, tears are not a bad sign, you know!
They're nature's way of helping me to heal...
They relieve some of the stress of sadness.
I know you fear that asking how I'm doing brings me sadness
...but you're wrong.
The memory of my loved one's death will always be with me,
Only a thought away.
My tears make my pain more visible to you, but you did not
give me the pain...it was already there.
When I cry, could it be that you feel helpless, not knowing
what to do?
You are not helpless,
And you don't need to do a thing but be there.
When I feel your permission to allow my tears to flow,
you've helped me
You need not speak. Your silence as I cry is all I need.
Be patient...do not fear.
Listening with your heart to "how I am doing"
relieves the pain,
for when the tears can freely come and go, I feel lighter.
Talking to you releases what I've been wanting to say aloud,
clearing space
for a touch of joy in my life.
I'll cry for a minute or two...
and then I'll wipe my eyes,
and sometimes you'll even find I'm laughing later.
When I hold back the tears, my throat grows tight,
my chest aches, my stomach knots...
because I'm trying to protect you from my tears.
Then we both hurt...me, because my pain is held inside,
a shield against our closeness...and you,
because suddenly we're distant.
So please, take my hand and see me through my tears...
then we can be close again.

♥ without a human shield
♥ Imagine a tear

♥ Imagine an ache
♥ that never dies
♥ Impossible to imagine….
♥ It’s life without you!

My special star, always and forever. Love you darling. xxx
The times when
I miss you the most
I remind myself that
we can never really be apart
Because you are always
on my mind
and forever in my heart.

Where Peace Flows Like a River.
Together we will journey
To that land up in the sky
Where the flame does burn eternal
And the soul does never die.
Where the harps are gently playing
As a host of angels sing
Where the road is paved with diamonds
And the golden bells do ring.
Where the path is set before us
Shining brightly as the sun
We will see the face of Jesus
When our final race is run.
Where the peace flows like a river
Winding through the streets of gold
We will dine with priests and prophets
When the key to life, we hold.
Where the flame does burn eternal
In that sacred Promised Land
Where God holds the gift of freedom
In the cleft of His right hand.
Where we'll see the face of loved ones
Long before us, gone away
What a day of sweet rejoicing
When we meet again someday.
Where we'll gather at the river
In our home up in the sky
Where the peace flows like a fountain
And the soul does never die.

Love You More
Do I love you
to the moon and back?
No I love you
more than that
I love you to the desert sands
the mountains, stars
the planets and
I love you to the deepest sea
and deeper still
through history
Before beyond I love you then
I love you now
I’ll love you when
The sun’s gone out
the moon’s gone home
and all the stars are fully grown
When I no longer say these words
I’ll give them to the wind, the birds
so that they will still be heard
I love you

Our Angels all have fireworks..
In heaven up above
With colours of red and gold..
Sent to you with love.
Do you see the sparklers..?
Such a pretty sight
Hope you have lots of fun..
On this Bonfire night.
Wrap up warm beautiful Angel..
'Cos it's cold and wet
Will you have hot dogs and burgers..
I bet you will..
I bet.
You can snuggle up to all your Angel friends..
And watch the fireworks with love
So you enjoy yourself special Angel..
And have fun in heaven above.

DREAMS
Dreams are where you relive memories,
a special time gone forever.
Dreams can take you to far away places,
that are only there while you sleep.
Dreams can make you smile or make you cry,
but when you wake you must say good-bye.
Dreamers can be what they want to be.
Dreamers are you and me.
Dreams are where you can see things,
that can no-longer be.
Dreams can take me to you,
no-matter where you are.
Dreams can make me smile or make me cry,
I never want to wake if I have to say good-bye.
Dreams can let me see you,
To touch you and hold you.
That's the only time I can be with you.
That's all I have left of you.
But I'll see you tonight in my dreams.
by Leslie D. Green
Don't Cry
Don't cry I'm only sleeping
Don't think that I'm not there
I can see you as you cry
As I sit on my rainbow stairs.
God told me that He needed me
And He only takes the best
And I love it here on my rainbow
I can now enjoy the rest.
I watch you when you sleep
And I am there every day
Cant you feel me? I am here
And it will always be this way.
I want to see you laughing
And I want to see you move on
I know you loved me dearly
Remember I'm here, I'm not gone.
