If I had known that on that day our time was near the end... I would have done things differently my forever friend.
I would have stayed right next to you deep into the night... but I thought I'd see you in the early morning light.
And so I said 'Good-night' to you as I walked in through the door... never thinking of the time when I'd see you no more.
But if I had known that on that day our time was at the end... I would have done things so differently my forever friend.
Welcome!
You have reached the My Forever Friend Memorial Website! Within these pages you will find original poems and the short story "The Reunion" written to honor the memory of my forever cottontail friend Shoo-Fly.
Though Shoo was wild and remained that way throughout the year of our friendship we shared a bond unlike anything I have experienced before or since. This bond has not lessened since his passing to the Bridge on Mother's Day, May 9th. of 1999.
Why the little wild rabbit chose me to be his friend, I may never know. I only know that the year with him changed my life completely.
It is my sincere hope that our guests who have forever friends waiting for them at the Bridge find a sense of peace and comfort in their visit.

My Forever Friend welcomes the magical season of winter!
Our featured poem:
"The Dream"
"From neath the tree I saw you rise; the light of life now in your eyes. From under the fence you came to me and things were as they used to be.
You sniffed my hand in friendship meet; my life was now again complete. We stayed awhile till moonlight's rise; then sat as old neath starry skies.
Though time stood still the seasons changed; together again through sun and rain; through winter's chill and with spring's first breeze flowers bloomed for us on the apple tree.
Stories told of days gone by;
apples sliced neath a starry sky.
Stories told of the times we knew;
together, forever, me and you.
We touched the sky at the Rainbow's end;
you and I, my eternal friend.
A friendship made; a friendship keep...
and I awoke from dream-filled sleep."
("The Dream" is taken from the Mystical Writing Section of the website.)
