Today is also my Poetic Day and today’s letter is “E”!
OUI OUI, TODAY WE DO “E” !
“Easy”
By Angel Sammy Kimmell, 1/11/17
My pal Easy is an Angel like me
We both flew to heaven where we are now free
We both miss our humans just like they miss us
But we visit them quietly – without any fuss
We want them to know that real love doesn’t die
It lasts truly forever, Angels don’t lie!
The spot in their heart that right now has an ache….
The sadness of loss, human hearts they can break…..
We will carry the load, and we’ll wait by their side….
One day they will join us on that big final ride.
(This poem is for Easy, but also for Jamison and Fiona and all others who passed over to the Bridge recently)
We are all Angels now…….and we love our humans ALWAYS.
Anyway, hope this poem doesn’t make everyone sad………….trust me when I say that when we go to the Bridge we are young again, have no aches and pains, have everything we need or want but most of all we DO visit you – listen for us with your mind, heart and soul and you will FEEL us there.
My Mom sometimes has a tough time still thinking about all the kindnesses shown to her and my Dad after I left…………all the poems and artwork and messages STILL echo in her heart. We recently received a beautiful gift from our friend Kelly Daye – who we all know as Boomdeeadda (if you follow her terrific blog!). It’s a balloon ornament which looks like the balloon I visited all of you – my friends – in on December 2nd which turned out to be the day I went to the Bridge. Here’s the ornament:
Kelly put the letter “S” on the balloon……so it’s MINE ALL MINE!
This was the badge for that special day – which was hosted by Easy and Madi………a day to remember always.
Tomorrow is Friendly Fill-Ins! See you there!
I am the Poet, I hope you know it!
Angel Sammy

That is a beautiful poem, Sammy. Purrhaps you could look up Mom’s kitty-before-me, Beezy, there at the Bridge and tell him that they love him and miss him!
What a special gift the hot air balloon ornament is from your friend, Kelly! That’s a nice remembrance of that day.

Sammy, this is an exceptional poem. How nice to have your E poem remember Easy and Fiona as well as others. Having Not Charlie here sometimes makes her more sad as she knows if Fiona was still with us, Not Charlie would have to find a home someplace else. And regardless of your words in the poem, Mom would still like to have Fiona with her. She was so super special. The humans are off to the vet now with Not Charlie, who hopefully will return as Cooper Murphy.

Oh we sure hope Not Charlie is officially Cooper Murphy as it’s now 2:30 here and you’ve been at the vets for an hour! PAWS CROSSED! Believe me, Mom knows just how you feel – she’d give anything to have ME still with her and Fiona with you and Easy with Miss Katty……..and now dear Jamison with Samantha……….all of us who crossed the Bridge would wish we could still be with our humans.
Love and Angel Hugs, Sammy
