In My Eyes, You're Everything



Yeah, we posted this version of one of our favorite songs in May, the last time Maggie was quite serious with a pancreatitis attack, but we'd give absolutely ANYTHING IN THE WORLD just to have her mess our bed, and in the morning kick us in the head just one more time. Please, sweet, sweet Maggie. Please pull through sweet baby.

  18. I'm so very sorry to learn of the loss of your beloved Maggie.I hope you will find comfort in my favorite memorial to a dog:
    "Where to Bury A Dog"

    We are thinking now of a setter,
    whose coat was flame in the sunshine and who,
    so far as we are aware,
    never entertained a mean or unworthy thought.

    This setter is buried beneath a cherry tree,
    under four feet of garden loam,
    and at its proper season the cherry tree
    strews petals on the green lawn of his grave.

    Beneath a cherry tree, or an apple,
    or any flowering shrub of the garden,
    is an excellent place to bury a dog.

    Beneath such trees, such shrubs,
    he slept in the drowsy summer,
    or gnawed at a flavored bone,
    or lifted his head to challenge
    some strange intruder.

    These are good places, in life or in death.
    Yet it is a small matter, and it touches sentiment
    more than anything else.

    For if the dog be well remembered,
    if sometimes he leaps through
    your dreams actual as in life,
    eyes kindling, questing, asking, laughing, begging,
    it matters not at all where that
    dog sleeps at last.

    On a hill where the wind is unrebuked,
    and the trees are roaring,
    or beside a stream he knew in puppyhood,
    or somewhere in the flatness of a pasture land,
    where most exhilarating cattle graze.

    It is all one to the dog, and all one to you,
    and nothing is gained, and nothing is lost -
    if memory lives.

    But there is one best place to bury a dog.
    One place that is best of all.

    There is one best place to bury a dog.
    If you bury him in this spot, he will
    come to you when you call -
    come to you over the grim, dim frontier
    of death, and down the well-remembered
    path, and to your side again.

    And though you call a dozen living
    dogs to heel, they shall not growl at
    him, nor resent his coming,
    for he belongs there.


    People may scoff at you, who see
    no lightest blade of grass bent by his
    footfall, who hear no whimper, people
    who may never really have had a dog.

    Smile at them, for you shall know
    something that is hidden from them,
    and which is well worth the knowing.

    The one best place to bury a good
    dog is in the heart of his master.

    By Ben Hur Lampman from the Portland Oregonian Sept. 11, 1925
