Facsimile of an Old Friend.

I met a lovely Border Collie in Ashbourne today. She came to me of her own volition and pressed her head into my hands.

She looked very like a collie I had when I was younger. Em was my beautiful girl and rambling companion until she developed a malignant tumour in her throat and died young. Such a loss that was.

It was nice to be re-acquainted, if only in a manner of speaking.

Thank you, Shay. I often make friends with dogs in Ashbourne, but this one was a bit special.
