"Emmitt's Lullabye"


The sky is filled with healing bubbles
They are packed with love
Their floating across the many seas
They float across the skys
They just sail so free.

Their floating over every cloud
above the stary skys

They sail above the moon so brite
they are packed with love.

Their floating through the snowy flakes
and gentle rains that fall
they swirl and then,
they gently touch the ground.

Can you see them?
Can you feel them?
Can you feel the love?

I hear a lullabye as the bubbles swirl
I hear a lullabye for my sweet Emmitt
The healing bubbles are floating
across our big , big oceans
to the East and to the West
to your world and mine

The bubbles will heal our crying hearts
as we all miss Emmitt so much.

Emmitt - your friend and mine

So very wise and brave is above the Rainbow- running free today
And his mom and dad Melissa and Fred-Life is art ... Art is Life
they have a very big hole in their heart.
The bubbles are swirling around them
The bubbles are packed with love.

One day Emmitt told his mom and dad ,,,,

"Do you remember the promise we made many years ago,,,
I hate to ask you, but,
Well, it is time to keep that promise, and now I must go."
I know its hard to do.
I will live in your hearts ,,,,,
forever and ever and ever.
I wil always love you"

The healing bubbles are swirling,, they are filled with love.
They are swirling all around , I know you feel them too.

Emmitt planted seeds in my heart.
Seeds to never give up- even when I am sad.

Today when I saw this brave little flower, I remembered those seeds.
And I remembered Emmitt.

One day I wrote a story about the "Bravest Tree in The Forest".

Emmitt told his mom "I feel like I am just like the that brave tree, and that I still and always will embody the love, life and spirit like I always have for all of us for all time that has been, and all time that will continue to be.

Today I dedicate my Bravest Tree story to my Emmitt.

Yes, the healing bubbles are swirling so gently.
I hear a lullabye drifting through the forest.
A lullabye for Emmitt.

There is a place where we hear your voice Emmitt,
there is a place where we can still feel your love,
that place is deep and safe in our hearts
We will love you forever Emmitt... forever and ever and ever.

You were my inspiration. You were my very first friend.
You taught my lips to talk. You gave me courage.
You were so wise.

I will miss you. But just as you have always held my paw
through sad and stormy days,,,,
I will hold your paw, forever and ever and ever.
The healing bubbles are swirling around me.
I feel your love, and I will never forget you

Nitey nite
love

Oh Tweedles,
I love your words. They bring such love and comfort at this sad time. I am sorry that you lost your very first friend today. Aren't we all so lucky to have known Emmett. I know he is running free now, fast like when he was a puppy. Seeing all his friends that crossed the bridged before him. We miss him so much all ready. We just received our sunflower sweater vests yesterday. We could smell Emmett in them, we will always treasure our friend. We treasure you too Tweedles.

The Daily Pip said...

This was just beautiful. i could feel how much you love him and I could feel how much he loves you. I am certain your words will help comfort all those missing sweet Emmitt.

Your pal, PIp

Tweedles, I hope your Mom is giving you as many hugs as mine is today. Your words are so beautiful, and they made her cry. Again. It's been such a sad day but your words are helping to heal us all.

Love and hugs,
Vito

Tweedles, honey, it is always so very, very hard when someone we love completes the Circle of Life. It is so hard for us to understand why they leave when we want them with us so much. The Circle of Life is so very mysterious.

We will go to Emmitt's bloggy and leave our comforting words.

GAIL said...

Oh Tweedles, thank you for those beautiful words. I think all our hearts have been broken today.

Molly the Airedale said...

What a beautiful, beautiful tribute, Tweedles. We are going to miss Emmitt so much and our hearts ache for Melissa and Fred.

Love ya lots,

Such a sweet post Tweedles...I'm so sorry about your precious friend. But I think that each time you have lost a friend, they have taken a piece of your heart with them. And every time a new friend comes into your life, a piece of their heart is given to you. I think that's what why you and your Mom's have such big, kind, caring and beautiful hearts...I hope you are feeling the healing my heart sending to you and all those who love and miss Emmitt...

Oh Tweedles, you are just so loving. We were all very saddened when we learned about Emmitt. Your words about him are just perfect. He was a kind soul, we loved his parties, his meat loaves, his songs, just everything about him. We know how much Melissa and Fred must be hurting. But we also know that their love for Emmitt and the bond between them will carry them through this very sad time.

Beautiful lullaby, we are all singing it with you.

Tweedles, I didn't know Emmitt before today but your words made me cry. I'm so sorry that your friend has crossed... and your words reminded me of all of my beloved dogs who wait for me up in the sky.

Thank you for the healing bubbles, sweet sweet Tweedles.

That was really beautiful. I believe for dogs they want nothing more than to be unconditionally loved. Emmitt must have loved her easily met this goal.

You have such a great way with words and we just love you for it. You always seem to say what we're feeling in such a beautiful way.

We will miss Emmitt too, but he will live on in our hearts and homes in the form of all the wonderful things his mom makes with him as the inspiration!

Winston Wilbur said...

What a nice dedication to Emmitt. We are crying crying and crying. We are trying to be happy as Emmitt would want us but it is so very hard.

The other day it snowed here. Big and small flakes poured down from the sky, covering the ground making everything white. We like to think that it was love from Emmitt up above, because of your words here.

We have been taking a little breaks on the blog to remember our lost friends Stubby and Emmitt.


PS Mum says she needs to gets your mailing address to send you your little package for sweater day.

There is a time when you let go..
Time when crossing that special bridge means just that... only means you are left on the other side to wonder... and want to follow. Eventually we do... Loads of my MATES waiting for me... just where I told them too. xxxxxxxxxxxx
