Poetry has been a way for me to express my inner most feelings and thoughts. It all started in a Cavalier dog group when one
of the dogs had a birthday and I decided I would put a rhyme together to say happy birthday. Well from there on I started
writing poems when Cavaliers crossed the rainbow bridge and since then I have written many many poems and I will put just
a few of my favorites on to give you an idea of what they are like. I also write Christian poems as I am a Salvation Army
Officer and love to express my faith in this way.
The Vision
I saw a ship with beautiful sails on a foggy
winters morn; it seemed so peaceful
as it passed by no sound came from it at all.
I stood and watched the beauty as it passed me by the shore,and when I looked around to see who was on it, there it was
no more.
I stood and wondered why this vision had come my way,
and then God reminded me we must all pass away some day.
And even though the beauty goes from our sight,
the image remains in our hearts and it remains so bright.
So take some comfort just now and know for sure that our
Dogs and loved ones are safe with God in his land forever more.

A. Adorable, adventurous, always loving
M. Magical, mischievous, always bubbling
Y. You my little one is special to me
Everyday when we speak, my hearts swells with love, I give thanks for you to God above.
As you grow and mature I look on with pride, and be grateful that my influence has weathered the ride.
I often cry when we say goodnight, cause I miss
having your lovely face in my sight.
I know that youve grown and your married now, but that doesnt stop the bond thats so tight.
Its true that our lives will change, and we will one day be far apart. But just remember my baby your
forever in my heart.
I am so proud of you and all youve been through, just remember there is an Angel called Jean looking
over you.
In a few years time when you read this again, youll remember that our love is special and it will never end.
Always in my thoughts.

A CAVALIER AT CHRISTMAS
A Cavalier at Christmas, such a wonderful sight to see,
A cavalier that gives lots of love to you and to me.
For on the day we celebrate a birth so wonderful and true
We have our sweet little cavaliers to cuddle up to.
Their softness and their beauty are as wonderful as can be
And its easy to understand that love we feel when a cavalier sits on your knee.
There is nothing quite as special as their soft black nose and big round eyes that glow, and its wonderful to watch their
tail as the feathers in them flow.
Their gracefulness and look is something to behold,
for these cute little dogs are always very bold.
And in the climate where there is snow these cavaliers with a full coat will gladly go.
But in the place where the sun is out and days are filled with heat,
There is nothing they like better than on the beach, a seat.
And when its time to unwrap the gifts and hear the laughter and fun, in the middle of it all will be a cavalier on the
run. They will crab with joy the paper and throw it all
around, and rip it all to shreds so no more can be found.
Once the food is ready they sit quietly by your feet, hoping oh just hoping that maybe they can taste the pudding that
smells so very sweet.
They look at you with eyes so large and round and you find your self completely spellbound. Before you know it they are
enjoying a treat, and the look on their face you can never beat.
One cant help but giggle at the thought of Christmas day, and just knowing that your cavalier will be beside you enjoying
this very special day.
