Another Smile is gone
I lost a four-pawed friend you see
Goodbye Sage, you dear old girl
No more will you pass by my door.
And though I know you are now free of pain
I will miss your joyful wagging tail
Whenever you greeted me without fail
With your joyful canine heart.
Sage was a neighbor's aging Cocker Spaniel. She was beautiful and so sweet.

MISSING BILL
by Kerrie O'Hearn Marquart
So here I am alone again
But remembering when
We two enjoyed watching,
"Dancing with the Stars"
And picking out our choice to win.
And when the season came to a close
What would we watch now?
We always wanted to know
Even though we knew it would be re-runs.
It sure is lonely without you Bill.
People say It will get better
But I know it never will.
I miss everything about you,
Every moment shared when we were two.
There is a hole in my heart
That none but God can fill
Now that you are gone,
My wonderful Bill....
The sign over the shed Door that I drew and Bill cut out with the scroll saw.
ONE MAN AND A SAW
All is silent now. No saw is humming that happy tune, the sound of creating.
