Sweet Ellie May...

Soulful and such gentle eyes,
Melting to the kindest touch.
You came to us abandoned
Unknown, your history and such.
 
We cherished every moment
Two beautiful babies that you bore.
We stood forever by your side.
For you, we wanted so much more.
 
A single thought, a perfect home.
Days passed, we saw more of you.

Emerging from a darkened shell
Life now wonderous and new.
 
Playful and devoted
Happiness had a shine.

No longer unwanted,
You were hers,
and you were mine.
 
From Rescue to our hearts
Ellie May became "someone."

Not simply a number,
Not lifes hidden and shunned.
 
A part of our family, 
A part that makes us feel the smile.

Ellie May was finally home.

At least,  
 
For a little while...
 
Fate played its harshest card
And, we were left helpless
To change its unyielding path.

Prayers and the tears of sadness
Forever, these will last.
 
We say goodbye
We'll miss you "Momma."
 
Tears trickle
 
For us...
 
A never ending stream.

Please remember our Sweet Little  "Ellie May,"
and please remember her life and what it means.


This Poem is dedicated to Ellie May & her foster mom Ruth.
