| A Letter from Winterbauer's Janushka
Easter Sunday
2008
I was with you when You dug my grave today,
You did it
with such care.
I want to
reassure you, that I have not really gone away.
I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for the door. I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said "it’s me." You looked so very tired, and sat into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there. It’s possible for me, to be so near you everyday.
To say to you with certainty, "I never went away."
You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew ... in the stillness when evening comes, You know I will always be close to you.
When the day is over...
I smile and
watch you yawning and hear you say
"Goodnight,
Juda, Atticus Rudy and Nushi,
I’ll see you
in the morning."
And when the time is right for you and my Juda Mom
to cross the
brief divide,
I’ll rush
across to greet you and we’ll stand, side by side.
I will have so many things to show you, there will be so much for you to see.
Be patient, live
your journey out take care of Juda Mom ...
then come home
to be with me.
Nushi was with us from Christmas 1991 until Easter Suday 2008
I hope I was
worthy of her devotion.
Jimmy my adored
Husband
Nushi and I
thank You for the Labor of Love You did for us Today..
Juda
