Message From Sam 


mommy i wanted you to know
how i run and play just like i used to
that i chase the sun on my whiskers
and roll in the grass


i can run so fast now that i feel like im part of the wind
and every time you thought of me
i felt it like i did when i was alive on Earth and you petted me
and sometimes...when you thought i was there after i died....i was


ive made so many friends at Rainbow bridge
and i tell them all about you
i tell them how you sang
and it was the most beautiful sound i ever heard.


i tell them how you showed me every day that you loved me
it felt like a blanket and i knew i was safe
i understood that my purpose of living
was being fulfilled by making you happy


we share stories about our mommies
how they would play with us
and i felt your ache for me when i left
i missed you too

i wanted so much to stop you from hurting
for i had not gone
i still ran and played in my house with you
only difference was you could not see me


mommy do not dream of not feeding me
because you are right...you did
and not just with food
but with love that filled me edge to edge.


it has lasted me into this world
and i never hunger because i got my fill
so please put that dream away
because it hurts me knowing it hurts you


i have to go and play in the stars and watch the rainbows
but i wanted to stop and reach out to you
because bonds are never lost
no matter how far away you go



Sam
