Holding the Memories


***
What I have found in holding onto my friend,
GRIEF, is that I am holding onto her memories.
I am re-living moments that were important to me
and to Abby.
At any given moment a memory will
flood over me and I will feel like I

am drowning.
But the fullness in my throat passes.
The deep, red-hot pain in my chest eases.
The tears slow and I simply
remember her.

***

I love you to the Moon
and back...
Again
and 
again
and again.

We are joining PepiSmartDog for 
this week's Thankful Thursday.
I am very thankful for one fluffy little
tuxedo manx granced my life.
