You left your body on Monday and I want you to know
how much you touched our lives
for the eleven years you shared with us.

| Luna grooming her sweet self near Mt. Lassen |
In Alaska, in Chico, in Baja
in the mountains, at lakes, at sea
on rafts, on trails, in sand
in creeks and under the
dining room table licking up scraps
dropped by your vivacious new
human sister Morgen
Glancing with pure devotion at Marko
Snarling ever so gently when
children stumbled over you
Snarling not so gently when Lusa nipped at your ankles
Batting your whispery white eyelashes at
the three dozen compliments strangers gave you
every time you walked down the sidewalk
I am Luna,
Regal Snowy White
Star of the Dog Universe
I always felt softened
to be with you
In a world of rough edges and splintered lines
you were the perfect blend of
icicle feather, angel paw
Your Earth tribe will miss you, sweet one.
We will always love you.
