Washed Away... A Dream of You...

... sad...

Woke up to the sound of pouring rain...
... washed away a dream of you...
... but nothing else...
... could ever... take you away...

... I took this pic this morning...

.. yes... it is true... I lost oakley earlier yesterday morning... literally like five minutes after I took his pic yesterday with him and all that rain... we were on a busy road with the woods close on either side and I guess the rain began to loosen his grip on the hood and I slowly saw his position begin to shift and then he slowly began to drift to the side... and quickly as I was looking for a place to pull over to grab him... in a flash... he was gone...

...it's funny because I had even finally decided to pick him up off the hood at the end of yesterday's work and plant him in this really kewl clear glass pot to watch him grow up and grow strong and eventually get planted in the outside world...

... and the saddest thing is that today he would have seen the craziest thing we would have seen so far...

... oakley...

... aww oakley... buddy... this kewl clear glass pot was your new home that I had planned for you with me untill you were big enough to go out on your own... but I was not quick enough...

... I'm so sorry oakley... what happened is not what I wanted for you... but if Nicklebee taught me anything about loss... he has taught me that ... life does goes on... I'd like to think that you rolled off the hood into a protected wooded patch that was covered with tall trees to shelter you and fertile ground to help you grow...

... and by the way oakley... and as you already know... it was so super bright today... and not a cloud in the sky... all day long... you would have loved it....

In a word ... solongmybuddyoakley...

y.o.c. - daysixtynine - i came to terms faster than i thought... but i do genuinely miss him...
