| Sweeny and I first became room mates, father and son, or my little   man about 7 months after my wife pass on.  He became my reason for   living and my inspiration to go on.  11 years later, Vera, Spirit (his   brother) and I are heart broken, but also are so very thankful for the   time we had with the Sween.  We miss you dearly baby boy.  
                             
                              |  When 
                                  somebody dies, a cloud turns intoan angel, and flies up to tell God
 to put another flower on a pillow.
 A bird gives the message back to
 the world, and sings 
                                  a silent prayer
 that makes the 
                                  rain cry. People dis-
 appear, but they never really go away.
 The spirits up there 
                                  put the sun to
 bed, wake up grass, and spin the
 earth 
                                  in dizzy circles. Sometimes you
 can 
                                  see them dancing in a cloud during
 the 
                                  day-time, when they're supposed
 to be sleeping. They 
                                  paint the rain-
 bows and also 
                                  the sunsets and make
 waves splash and tug at the tide.
 They 
                                  toss shooting stars and listen to
 wishes. And when they sing wind-
 songs, they whisper to us, don't
 miss me too much. 
                                  The view is nice
 and I'm doing just fine.
