Pet Energy Portraits & Poetry
Connecting with the Spirit of your Pets
Pet Energy Portraits are designed to showcase the spirit of your beloved pets, rather than being a photographic type of representation. I connect with the spirit of your pet, whether they are still alive or have passed, by feeling into your photos and listening to your stories.

Ode to Buddy
Buddy is my best friend, always beside me or on my lap
So very well behaved, with impeccable manners – such a lovely chap
His quiet and gentle nature bring great comfort to me
With him I’m not alone – always in good company
He gets me up and out for his daily walk
And gives me a reason to catch up with others and talk
He christens every blade of grass and tree
Not overly interested in other dogs – just happy out with me
He’s been known to like the occasional cuddle
And loves to chase his ball
When inside he never leaves a puddle
And when outside, I never have to call
He’s slowing down a bit now, using a ramp to ascend his throne
He sits there high and mighty, watching people pass
He knows which cars are OK and barks when others trespass
He really is my perfect Buddy – and I’m his best friend Joan

Tasha
To our beloved friend Tasha
A most placid and gentle, beautiful creature
Despite having survived most horrid abuse
You carried yourself with poise and grace – none would deduce
With your soft and gentle eyes
Silky coat and jet black face
Your loving heart could hypnotise
Even the toughest of the human race
You wanted nothing more than loving care
And we’d all delight in the cuddles you’d share
Then one day it was your time to go
We miss you dearly, but still bask in your afterglow
You showed us how to live in the moment and just be
And your spirit of gentleness lives on
So run with the wind, forever free
As we join with you in spirit – love Kerrie & John
