Epitaph for a Lamb

 
Tingo was our remaining Baby Doll Lamb, Martyred at age three by a hungry dog.
Tingo as a Baby
All

Last night, lying in bed
before drifting off to sleep,
My usual time to sweetly commune with the Gurus,
Tingo, my
beloved lamb, visited me.
I happily kissed my pillow, her soft black belly,
Soft and cuddly,
My dear friend!
Only it was curiously the soft belly of a man.
A saintly Bhagat, a wondrous soul
from the time before Guru Nanak
was visiting me!
He thanked me
for giving him and the
children great fun  
and loving care

During his lifetime under my protection,
A lifetime fulfilled, martyred for a cause,
For which he, she, it was born.
In great disguise!
To see Tingo in her true incarnation!
All trauma disappeared, no more tears!
We laughed at the cosmic play
and the fact that I rode on his back
For a few blessed moments
I happily kissed my pillow once again,
His lamb-like belly,

Welcoming him home
Happy in the heavens
Yet ever with me,
Home with his loving Janabai,
Sweet Bhagat Nam Devji
.
