Sleep, the final frontier

Posted on August 3, 2015 by pensitivity101

Sleep softly my Lovely,
Dream of peace and tranquility.
Sleep soundly, my Love
In a place of beauty and serenity.
Sleep gently my Darling,
Be enfolded in love everlasting.
Sleep deeply, my Dearest,
In comfort and warmth eternal.
Sleep safely my Precious,
Until I too can pass into your world.

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

      Don’t know what triggered it really, but the thought of ‘passing over’ in one’s sleep came into my mind as I was walking the dog.

        I Wish my dogs would pass on in their sleep, instead of me always having to take them to the vets to be put down! SL is v v old. It is on my mind. But hopefully not just yet!

        All comes down to quality of life and our canine friends can surprise us. My uncle had always had 2 dogs and their GSD was getting on and they were waiting for the inevitable, so they got a puppy in order for their boxer not to feel lonely. Lady got a new lease of life and they had 3 dogs for about 4 years. I hope Maggie falls asleep one night not to awaken. It’s the ultimate I can wish for her.
