Speed of Life (goodbye little friend)
We didn't feel like blogging yesterday ... sorry... we were very sad 'cause our little birdy friend aka: "Kleinstein" passed away back into the circle of life... He was always the poorly one of the lot, and after our orphaned finches got ill last week he was in very bad shape... Sadly I have to report that despite all that we (Stenny and Ans & Hans) have tried , he didn't make it...
I found him dead in his cage in the early morning... just a sad little bundle of bones and feathers... we have buried his tiny innocent remains with dignity and ceremony amongst the embracing roots of the giant "singing tree" in the forest. Softly raining flowers, seeds, tears and song over his remains wrapped in his favourite little fuzzy blanket...
Today our tears have dried, and we do our best for his three siblings in the hope that they will pull through and become 100% healthy again. Sometimes it sucks to care so much about all the little critters ... but it's still the only way we can be... I wish you all health and many bright Greenthingz!
