Skye

There was once a little border collie, unloved, abused and without a family.
A boy and a girl rescued her, and brought her home.
They give her name, Skye, like the beauty above her.

She loves to catch Frisbees and take long walks.
She loves to chase and play with her fur family Boomer and later Stormy.
She despises squirrels in her yard.
She dislikes loud noises, bright lights and garbage trucks.
She does not care for others, because she loves the boy and the girl, the most.

The years past and there are more to love, two little boys and a little girl.
The years slow and she no longer can catch the Frisbees or chase the squirrels.
Fourteen years have passed to fast.  The boy and girl are sad.
She looks at the girl and the boy one last time, and then she goes to sleep.
She sees a beautiful bridge, and then Boomer.  She can run fast again.  She is free.
