A Tribute To Boomerang
Born on a beautiful summer day
He arrived from a place far, far away
Boomerang was his chosen name
My life changed, never to be the same.
His heart was filled to the brim with love
He was indeed a miracle, sent from above
When he became sick, I cried inside
By some miracle, he survived the rough ride.
His life continued for awhile
Just his presence made me smile
The doctor said he could not stay
I adored him, continued to hope and pray.
In my heart, I knew he would not last
He was an angel, a gift from the past
More precious than diamonds, platinum or gold
Boomerang was a blessing, a miracle to behold.
When the time came to say good-bye
He departed Earth, but did not die
His soul still sends me unconditional love
Someday, he'll return from that place up above.
(The end of the poem, and just the beginning of the story...)
From Arlene Millman : "I have shared my life with dogs for as long as I can remember. As a baby, my first word was "doggie" much to the surprise of my parents. Dogs have always held a special place in my heart, and Boomerang was a remarkable Boston Terrier. We were closely bonded from the day he was born, and I feel we were destined to be together for a greater mutual purpose.
As a first time author, my purposed in writing about the life of Boomerang was to inspire, inform and entertain. It is my fervent wish to imbue the reader with a sense of hope within the present context...and for the future as well.
Three amazing Boston Terriers and an extraordinary Macaw currently share my home. When not enjoying the company of this mini-menagerie, I am working on a sequel to Boomerang - A Miracle Trilogy, as well as a collection of inspirational poetry."
