To Those I Love
If I should ever leave you whom I love
To go along the Silent Way, grieve not,
Nor speak of me with tears, but laugh and talk
Of me as if I were beside you there.
(I'd come-I'd come, could I but find a way!
But would not tears and grief be barriers?)
And when you hear a song or see a bird
I loved, please do not let the thought of me
Be sad .... For I am loving you just as
I always have ... You were so good, to me!
There are so many things I wanted still
To do --- so many things to say to you ...
Remember that I did not fear ... It was
Just leaving you that was so hard to face ...
We cannot see Beyond.. But this I know:
I loved you so - 'twas heaven here with you!
Ceallachan (cal a han) was a big, dark boy, like his dad, MacTire. He was a playful, friendly guy, He adored and demanded attention, using his paws to "hook" potential petters. He was our "Golden Retriever" Wolfhound as he loved people so much. Outgoing and happy, he was a joy and is very much missed.
