Goodbye little friend
Bronze Bluebell - guinea pig departed
A lovely girl, black, with a bronze patch on one side
You lived quite old for a guinea pig - 5 years or more
We brought you two black-and-white girl piggies
As companions, for the last half-year or so of your life
They are still here - like twins they are
We couldn't leave just one on its own in the pet shop
But you had a good long life
You got worn out with old age
Don't some of us humans too?
Went downhill fast - as you piggies seem to do so
Eating and drinking and running about
Until about two days from the end
Then reaching the stage
Where it was cruel to let you linger on
But now - Rest In Peace
Free from any further sufferings
Gone to Guinea Pig Heaven, I'm sure

You are welcome, Steven!
Tristan's latest is related in a sense to this beauty. That's why you can't but miss the dear little character, though mercifully you have the two others to help comfort you. Very, very lovely. Beautifully rendered with excellent imagery and a winsome poignancy. I love it. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you CM.
