Then I found the poem I wrote about ihim after he was PTS following a broken leg and realised I had never given it to my daughter who now lives in Australia with my granddaughter Lolly, and who I have not heard from or seen in four years, since I had my accident.
I thought I would post it here just in case anyone in Auz or
England is in contact with her and can pass it on.
I do not think she realised how much I loved Krizzy as well as her and Lolly.
Sorry to be sentimental but what have i got to lose.

Krizzy dearest, golden strength,
I would have gone to any length
To have you near for all of time,
Forever safe, forever mine.

Your soft brown eyes and gentle greeting
Breaks my sleep, my heart is beating,
On my neck your sweet warm breath,
Belies the memory of your death.

I wrap my fingers in your mane,
Astride your back, we`ll canter again.
Through woodland paths and meadows of heather,
In my dreams we`ll always be together.

In my life there will never be,
One that meant so much to me,
Oh Krizzy mine, my dearest friend,
This was a love,
That has no end.
 
That is so lovely!

My dad wrote a poem for my horse that died a couple of years ago. It was published in the BSPS newsletter...still makes me cry and smile to this day!

Oh no you've gone and done it...(got very watery eyes)!!!

That is such a beautful poem! I dont know how you could do it but i think your daughter should see this. It is so beautiful, you must have loved him so much!

Need a tissue!!!
 
I always write a poem when one of ours dies, its the only time, loss brings out my creative spirit it seems.
This is the other one i wrote when Tim our 17.hh ID/TB sports horse was PTS for Navicular Syndrome.
The day we found him crippled in the field we knew it was the end.

I love to canter,love to jump,
feel oxygen surge through my blood,
Intoxicates me with life,
I am free to fly.
Hooves skim the grass, adrenaline pumps,
Passage, Piaffe! I dance on air.
No weight at all -
I gallop on a layer of energy, my senses
Tuned to every smell and movement.
With every breath
I hold my world in my heart.
 
I would post gem's but it was 2 A4 pages long! Maybe another time...

I will try and see if the poem book it is in has a link.

I really hope your daughters sees/hears of this post and makes contact with you.

awwwwww water works now!!!
((((((Hugs))))) for you


most of us on here know how you feel as we have lost our loved ones too and they do stick in your mind and heart forever..and the smallest of things tend to bring so many huge memories back too..

i think about my girl everyday..
 
I know she never will - I ve tried for three long years. I have done everything I can - but i always keep some little bit of hope inside that one day I will see her and my beautiful granddaughter again.
She moved to Auz without telling me she was going, so when I went to visit her in the New Year, flew down from Scotland, the house she rented was occupied by new tenants and they told me my daughter had emigrated 3 weeks before. I ve never seen them since.
I know she married a guy, then left him for another and is now in Perth working as a riding instructor. She obviously loathes me for some reason, though I will never know why. I spent the first 4 years of Lollys life looking after her to help my daughter go to work so I was heartbroken for a long time after they went.
I guess I always will be.
Its a terrible thing for a child to do to their parent.
Lolly my granddaughter loved me very much too, so it must have been terrrible for her to never see me again.
She spent half her life with me.
 
You must be devastated, i feel so sorry for you! If you dont mind me asking what was her reason for leaving as you said you had a accident so wouldnt she have wanted to stay around to help you?

I hope one day she realises what she has done and come back to you!
 
Katenjack - have you seen the website www.hoofbeats-in-heaven.com? It's a beautiful and sensitive site and is jammed full of poems and tributes and quotes. You can light a candle for your horse and I think there's a web-based support group too. One of the Forum members told me about it when her much loved little mare was pts in the last stages of liver failure recently. It might help x
 
Oh kate, how sad. You are right to always keep a bit of hope there. You never know what might happen in the future, she might be glad of her mums shoulder one day.

Your poem is lovely. The whole thing has made me feel a bit emotional

I broke my pelvis lunging my horse and was in a wheelchair, my daughter was having some difficult times as well and I had been looking after my granddaughter practically since she was born to help her whilst she tried to juggle jobs, and horses. I think she just couldn't cope when I became useless, so she kept away. I would have been another burden, then of course she must have felt so guilty that she wasn't there for me when I needed her, how I had been there for her when Khrizzy was PTS and when she had Lolly and when she was homeless, that she couldn't ever face me again or say sorry -so she just decided to blow me out of her life completely.
- It must have seemed the easy way out at the time.
