Seeing Hearts

[Clio_86]

My dog died three weeks ago and we buried him in our yard under a tree. I made a sign with his name that I put on the tree above his grave. One day right after he passed, I was walking in the yard and found a rock shaped like a heart. I kissed it and put it on his grave. I've had some chaos these last few weeks and have moved. Anyways, I have seen some substantial heart shapes a few times since. I like to think they are a sign from my baby.

Tonight I was walking with my Aunt and her dog. She took me to visit her neighbour down the road. I had never been there. On the way, I thought I saw a heart shape on the ground but I told myself that I am just wishing too hard. The shape wasn't a full heart and that it wasn't a good enough heart to count. I said, if my dog sends me a heart, it is going to be a really good one, like the few I had before.

So we walked to her neighbours and visited for ten minutes. They have a dog like my dog that passed and I played with him for a moment and gave him some pets. When we left, I saw this small fenced area in their yard which I thought was a pet cemetery or something. I asked my Aunt what it was and she said it was a heart garden and that every rock inside the fence was shaped like a heart. I walked to the fenced area and saw that it was full of heart shaped rocks.
