written and sung by

Karla Bonoff

Oh we never know where life will take us We know it's just a ride on the wheel And we never know when death will shake us And we wonder how it will feel So goodbye my friend I know I'll never see you again But the time together through all the years Will take away there tears It's O.K. now Goodbye my friend

I'd see a lot of things that made me crazy And I guess I held on to you You could've run away and left, well maybe But it wasn't time and we both knew So goodbye my friend I know I'll never see you again But the love you gave me through all the years Will take away my tears I'm O.K. now Good bye my friend

A life so fragile, a love so pure We can't hold on but we try We watch how quickly it disappears And we'll never know why But I'm O.K. now Goodbye my friend You can go now Goodbye my friend

My Precious, Sweet Megan

Today I honor you, your life and your passing. It is three years since I held you, as you slipped across to the other side... I am so grateful we had those last few hours together, and comforted to know. .that my stroking you helped to ease those last difficult steps. Tho I am comforted that you are release from your prison of pain, I miss you today as much as then.

Thank you for all the love you gave me.... and still do.. so unconditionally. Yours was the beginning of a whole new life for us! You taught me so many things... .how to accept love that is given with no 'strings' attached, learning wasn't to be done in a negative environment: Positive reinforcement was the key to our fantastic journey into the world of dogs shows. You hated being left alone, and let me know in no uncertain terms. .that you needed to come with me.

Thanx for the 'highs' you gave me @ the shows....wow!! and the days we won....I walked on air.. so proud of my beautiful girl. Remember the day you got that first point?... and even more cool....the day we won over the professional handler. Way to go, Meggie, dear You looked so gorgeous out there!...strutting your stuff...and now.. with your beautiful wings?? why, Sweetie, now, you are my beautiful Angel.

when we didn't win.. thanx for being still the wonderful friend to come home with.

Wow! What a matriarch! None could do it better!! Confusion still reigns without you here sometimes , to make sure that no one's eats out of someone else's bowl. If you can, from where you are..please help them understand.

Last but surely not least... thanx for bringing you daughter Echo into this world. Thanx for all you taught her, and now, thru your grandchildren , your legacy lives on. Starphire has your mahogany coat, Tiara, your personality....she grows more like you as the days go by. Soon, I hope that Starphire will help to produce your great grandchildren yet to come!

One last thing.. I am so honored to have shared your life and to now share the bond of love so strong that nothing.. can break.. Finally, I am very glad.. that your journey to Rainbow Bridge came just prior to your daughter Echo's ..so that you were there to greet her.. when she made her swift, shocking flight to join you there .

Please know. .I anxiously await the day that once again, your kisses 'rain upon my face' and you are back in my arms once more.

All my love,

your 'human' Mom
