THE DAISY THAT I PICKED

You might think my favorite daisy

                                would be

                        this sweet flower

that is growing right outside my bedroom

                     window

IMG02256

Or this wonderful 1947 oil painting

IMG02259

Well, none of these daisies

         touch my heart

              as much as

        the one and only

IMG02244

             DAISY

    Our sweet loving Daisy

is loosing her battle with cancer

IMG02247

             We rescued

       This amazing  dog

        When she was 2

She has been such a loyal friend

      and loving member

         Of our family

IMG02248

            She is now 15 and 1/2

IMG02224

     She will be missed

IMG02226

          By her friends

thamksgivong09 034

And the entire Payne  family

I know a lot of you out there have experienced such a loss. Daisy played such an important role for me when I lost both my parents.  She was my healing force. My pain is great but my love for her will always be greater.
