Or even a name given to a puppy who'd become a longtime friend.<br /><br />I am always intrigued by possible names for puppies. (I've not got a puppy and perhaps that's why I'm intrigued.)<br /><br />Your posts do summon lots of thoughts, and I thank you!Franceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-85515101166442002952011-04-05T17:13:26.649-07:002011-04-05T17:13:26.649-07:00ahhh weaver the long and short lops of our remembe...ahhh weaver the long and short lops of our remembering. who will forget us? stevenstevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14132104804524716898noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-54536289485351277692011-04-05T16:01:53.952-07:002011-04-05T16:01:53.952-07:00You've got my investigative juices flowing.

I have the 1881 census discs here, so I'll see if he appears on there.

My one obsession has always been to leave something behind like a great painting (not) or a great novel (not)or just something other than being remembered as the mother of my children and maybe a friend or two. Your poem is a great start for you. I liked it. <br /><br />And I can't help but think of the quote,"Oh, to be in England now that Spring is here."
