Written for Saikusu. My beloved friend, who also acted as my big brother. He passed away on September 4th 2010. Also written for Xemunasu and all the people who loved Saikusu As I walked outside, the deep feeling Of sadness had yet to leave me. Saikusu, James… my puppy. Gone. How had I allowed this to happen? No… I could do nothing to stop this. No one could. I felt the need to cry, but held my tears back. As I walked around outside, I passed under a tree. The first of its leaves had already begun to fall. I thought to myself. Maybe James was in the trees I held my hand out. “Are you my James?” The leaf fluttered past my hand and into the dirt. I looked and frowned. “You aren’t my James. He would have taken my hand.” I walked on, past the tree. The wind began to blow harshly. I thought to myself. Maybe James is in the wind? “Are you my James?” The wind blew harder, pushing me to and fro. I frowned and sighed “You aren’t my James. He would have wrapped his arms lovingly around me.” I took shelter until the wind had calmed. Then walked on. I looked on a gate of a house nearby. On it sat a cardinal. I thought of what James had said to me Only days before his death. “When ever you see a cardinal, think and remember me.” I held my hand out to the cardinal. “Are you my James?” The cardinal took flight and landed in my hand. I looked and smiled. “I have found you at last. Will you walk with me, till I get home?” I walked with the cardinal cradled in my hands. As I arrived home, it took flight. “Goodbye My James. Come back and visit me.” And the cardinal came back to walk with me everytime. I love you James. Rest in peace
