Thanks, Genie. Coming from someone who has connected animals with love to benefit so many people, your thoughtful words mean a great deal. Much appreciated.
What a moving, well-written story, Larry. The fact that you still think about this precious creature all these years later is a tribute to the depth of your humanity. It’s so special. That must’ve been a challenging time in your life with such big life events happening.
Oh my! You told me this story some time ago, but now when reading it I got all choked up. You did a beautiful job paying tribute to Lucy and to the power of Love which often gets delivered in small packages (that sometimes have feathers and chirp). Bless you . . . I'm so glad you let yourself revisit this and feel the bond again.
We’ve had a sweet little parakeet by the name of Blueberry for the last 10 years or so, and I feel quite attached to him…teaching me positivity of spirit in his little, enchanting ways. So reading your (love) story with Lucy was moving to me – her light will shine on!
Larry, you’re one of the funniest writers I know. But your skill as a writer goes far beyond making people laugh. You have an innate ability to convey the black and white of raw emotion in glorious technicolor. This is such a tender piece. Your love for Lucy and your parents chirps and flutters through every word.
Such a moving story. I am so glad you had Lucy in your life. Who better to teach us about love, than a lovebird!!!

That picture of you with Lucy says it all.

Thanks, Kathy. Yeah, there were a lot of big events happening when I "Birdy Tears of Pain" incident. That may have fueled the level of emotion.

I forgot that I told you this story a while back. Thank you for your kind feedback.

Thank you, Brigitte. Give Blueberry a (very mini!) hug for me.
This is so sad, Larry. A beautiful piece, I’m going to be thinking of Lucy all night. Wonderful writing.
Thanks a million, Claire. I appreciate your kind words, especially from someone as talented as you.
In this vivid writing i partoke a bit of this universal feeling that Lucy catalyzed for you.
Thanks Karl. Much appreciated!!

Thanks Simon. As always, you’re eternally supportive and encouraging.
Nothing like loving a pet. What a beautiful story.
Great story. Great truth.
