LITTLE VOICE
~A. Lenzi
Too briefly
passed the mornings
of your quest
for breakfast
and then running at play
Little paws
too briefly
passed the afternoon
you kneaded my lap
before settling in
and purring to sleep
Little nose
too briefly
passed the nights
when I felt your nuzzle
burrowing under the covers
to sleep at my feet
Little heart
too briefly
passed the time
when you were with me
when you loved me
and you were
my friend
Doc
For Doc (missing since September 2006), who never came home... We still love & miss you, and think of you every day, where ever you are. May you be safe and at peace. Looking forward to the day we meet again, on this plane or the next.
Scooter
For Scooter (January 1989-February 1999), the bravest protector a girl could ever want. I learned the meaning of the word "loyalty" from you. You are very much missed, and will always be dearly loved, my little monster. Thanks for the visits...they mean so much.
Zeek
Zeek performed a valiant and heroic deed when he bit a young thug in the knee when he and three other would-be attackers tried to steal my truck and gardening equipment in the Rialto, CA area. They all were armed with pipes. They fled because of Zeek's courageous deed. Zeek passed in the year 2000.
The Gone Song
by A. Lenzi
SAHFF
This is a sing-back song were the line is sung and then repeated (I really wish I knew how to read/write music, if I could I could explain how this is sung. It's kind of like a Southern Dirge. Check out "Oh Death" on the O' Brother Where Art Thou soundtrack to get an idea)
Oh, my cat-is-gone
(my cat is gone)
Oh, my cat-is-gone!
(my cat is gone)
And all-the-cats
(and all the cats)
Sing the cat-gone-song
(sing the cat gone song)
[Everyone sings] meow! meow! meow!
Oh, my dog-is-gone
(my dog is gone)
Oh, my dog-is-gone!
(my dog is gone)
And all-the-dogs
(and all the dogs)
Sing the dog-gone-song
(sing the dog gone song)
[Everyone sings] woof! woof! woof!
Oh, my lizard's gone
(my lizard's gone)
Oh, my lizard's gone!
(my lizard's gone)
And all-the-lizards
(and all the lizards)
Sing the lizard-gone-song
(sing the lizard gone song)
[Everyone sings] flick! flick! flick! (like a lizard tongue flicking)
Repeat for whatever animal you would like
Zanni Pallo
You are so very missed.
