I have been asked to post the Mistress Elizabeth's grey, Charmchaser--or
just Charm to most of us--has passed. She is laid to rest here at Hounds'
Rest with those others of Greymoor and Gaelic Rose Packs, Lucky, Belle,
Streaker, and Winsome. She succumbed to a stroke on Sunday morning. Where
she had been having problems for the past month, her last three days were
playful and lucid. It seems to be a gift the Lady give us before they go.
Unleashed!
She rises upon the wings of speed,
Soaring across the rising kiss of Terra's lips.
There she rivals the rush of the Wind's race,
Roaring in her ears as she outstrips its cast.
Staccato beats of nails against hard earth,
Counter-played to the song of a beating heart of Fire!
Turn now, and there! The most favour'd in her gaze,
Sides heaving in great breaths, she stops before her Master.
Silent eyes speak in wonder for she too has flown,
In the running of her friend and companion.
And so it was so long ago, and so it shall be now,
As it has been for all the Ages of Man,
The Arrow of Artemis, the Greyhound.
