FLASH FICTION FOR THE PURPOSEFUL PRACTITIONER: 2020: WEEK #21

Posted on May 20, 2022 by pensitivity101

Reblogging this for Friday Flashback. Hard to believe this was written two years ago. How were we to know that come November 17th, we would lose our beloved Maggie.
Now we have Maya and it’s good to have a dog again.

Her voice would haunt him forever. It was music to his ears and light to his soul.
And now she was gone.
Her face was beautiful, those eyes huge and brown, sparkling from within.
Now all that was lost.
How he would love to touch her one last time.
The image in his mind was crystal clear, almost as if she were lying beside him.
He reached out to smooth a wayward hair from her brow, but his hand was met with sand.
As the grains trickled through his fingers, the picture drawn from memory disintegrated.
The loss of a beloved pet is sometimes harder than the loss of family.

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.

      We both miss Maggie, Barney too. Maya has made her own place in our hearts though, and totally different to either of them and Kiz, my GSD I had when I met Hubby in 1989.
