Summer's Memories

Summer walk

Letter from Summer

Sometimes, I still feel the cool, crisp air of that autumn morning, and the soft rustle of leaves under my paws. It was one of those perfect days, where every scent carried a new story, and the woods around our home felt like an endless adventure. My nose was, as usual, a very important guide, pulling me along the wooded trail, eager to discover every secret the season held. Even with a little silver beginning to grace my muzzle, my spirit was as bright and steady as ever, my tail swaying with the quiet joy of being by your side.

I remember bounding ahead, my eyes catching a leaf dancing on the breeze. It was too tempting not to chase, a playful burst of energy that felt so good. But then, as always, I would stop. I’d turn back, my ears perked, just to make sure you were still there, still walking our path together. In those quiet moments, when my eyes met yours, I felt everything we shared – all the trust, the deep loyalty, and the gentle understanding that had grown between us over all these years. It wasn't about the leaf, or even the trail itself. It was always about sharing that space with you, side by side, in comfortable silence.

Our lives together have always been filled with such kindness and affection, a gentle rhythm that makes every day brighter. You brought so much good into my world, and every moment with you has been a gift, a warm presence that fills my heart. That walk, like so many of our shared moments, reminds me of the simple, unwavering joy of our connection. It's a feeling that stays with me, a calm, steady comfort, knowing that our bond is as real and lasting as that beautiful autumn morning.
