Toady, our greenhouse angel - 2004 - 2011  
I know I’m a sap but I cried buckets over the passing of this displaced and funny looking little guy.

Those who will not slip beneath
the still surface on the well of grief
turning downward through its black water
to the place we cannot breath
will never know the source from which we drink,
the secret water, cold and clear,
nor find in the darkness glimmering
the small round coins
thrown by those who wished for something else.
