BIRD
REMEMBER ME
"Remember me always, but do not
grieve for me too long. I have tried always to comfort you in times of
sorrow, and have made every effort to add joy to your life. I never wanted
to cause you pain.
Peace for me is certain now, and I
suspect I will have eternal sleep in the Earth I have loved so
well.
Please, after your period of
grieving for me, make room in your heart for another. You are the kind of
human being that should always have a friend like me to love. Your kind
and gentle heart should not be wasted on my memory too long. Give your
love to another. I know your new friend will never take my place, because
we had something very special.
It may not be quite the same, but
a new devoted and loving companion will in time, become special in their own
way.
You loved me very much and I loved
you. My spirit will always be with you, and no matter how deep my sleep,
my grateful heart will always remember you."
