I walked into the house last night To find that you were not there I opened my mouth and greeted you My words spoke only to air I walked to the counter to touch the box A substitute for your hair Only to realize again, that you simply were not there I can imagine you dancing on the counter tops Meowing your every desire It brings a smile to my face Knowing that in some sense you are still in this place It’s not the same without you here You physical being was so bright But as each and every night will come I will still say “goodnight”. For each morning I awake revived From your visit to my dreams I hold you in my arms so tight I awake with a smile and a day so bright
I thank you for the time you spend Spiritually comforting me Without you here in some sense I simply could not be. |

This is sooo touching...and so true. "I simply could not be.." That is so real and so heart wrenching. Best to you and I share, and understand, your sentiment. Peace

Thank you leileismom. I appreciate that you took the time to read this, and I appreciate the fact that you share the thoughts with me. I hope you are well. :)
Thank you so much Jacki! I really do hope he is. Life is hard without him around, but I can sense him sometimes, and it's so comforting. I just feel complete again. I'll pray for you and yours as well.

Lovely tribute!
My favorite part is the dancing on the countertops.
Such a beautiful vivid memory.

Carsonsmom,
I'm so glad you liked the poem. I really miss his dancing on the counter tops. He used to do circles and then jump from one to the other, then the box that I spoke of, is where he'd end up. Using it as a scratching post, telling me he was hungry. It was a wooden pencil/knickknack box, so luckily I can keep it forever. I like to rub it everyday before I leave to work and when I get home, because those are the times he would have been on it. I'm so glad that I have those memories. I'm actually smiling about them, instead of crying about them, now. Hope you are doing well! ~MrPeabodysMomma

There is something so soothing about holding their belongings or toys.
I know you'll cherish that little knickknack box forever.
At first, when I would hug Carson's little blankey I would just break down and sob.
But slowly its starting to get better.
When I touch the things that Carson considered "his", it helps me feel like he's still here.

I still have the pillow that he slept on the week that he go so sick, next to my bed. It was originally on the other side of the room for him, because he didn't always like to stay in one place, so I had different "comfort spots" for him to move to during the night. The night before we had to say goodbye, I had that pillow next to my bed. It's a body pillow and very soft, and it was put there so that if he tried to jump down from the bed, which he was really not able to do so effectively, he would land on something nice and soft. I don't know when I'll be able to move that pillow because it really is comforting to me to have something like that right next to me at night.
It's so cute that Carson had a blanky! I'm so glad you have something physical to hold on to when you feel like you miss him the most. I'm also starting to get a handle on things. I have times when I think I've lost my mind, and that he's actually just at the vet and coming home, but then I "get with it" and remember that he's not ever coming home in that sense. I pray for your peace in all of this. Please keep in touch.

That was such a beautiful tribute to MrPeabody. I can tell with each word you wrote that your love for him is so very very strong. He feels the same way about you too. Thanks for sharing. Your poem was just lovely.
Sleep peacefully,
Pam
