Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
Fishman? You are needed. This is your bag :)
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
So its just one more line you need Poppy? Obviously it can't be too long if it's going on a plaque. Give me a while. Am I allowed to alter the line you have?
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
Will have to get back to you on this Poppy, Mrs F not good with epilepsy. I'll be back.
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
No worries, fishman, I’m grateful for the help and I hope all is well with Mrs. F.
I’m hoping for a rework of the line I have, or something with a similar sentiment. :)
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
Hi Poppy. We have to go look at headstones today. So anticipatory anxiety is up. However I promise to get back to you.
Speak later.
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
Just had a thought.....
You don't want it too long otherwise it won't fit on the plaque or the words will be too small to read.
The line you wrote poppy is good in itself and already has the word 'Forever' in it.
Although fishman is good at poetry.
Hope today goes well for you today and Mrs fishman is ok.
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
Forever where the creeks do flow and beneath a warming sun,
there play the spirits of our pets, eternal do they run.
Is that a bit closer Poppy? I have to go soon, I just hate any kind of 'meeting'.
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
Thank you Carnation and Fishman - that modified line is exactly what I was envisioning. I knew I came to the right place. :)
I’ll be thinking of you - I can’t imagine it will be easy, but I know you’ll manage. You don’t have to go alone do you? Hopefully anyone that comes along can be helpful. Or were helpful, since I think I’m getting to this late.
Hope Mrs. F. is feeling better too.
Re: Calling all wordsmiths!
Well that pleases me Poppy, I didn't want to do those lovely dogs a disservice. In all honesty I'm worried about our black lab. She's an old girl now and her walks have gradually become slower and shorter. I won't let her suffer, but right now she doesn't appear to be in pain. I dread the day though...
Mrs F has slept today while I went to the headstone makers with my youngest daughter. All sorted but the anxiety wasn't good. But then again when is it?
