My Dog
Yesterday was 25th September and it has been a year since Ricky passed on at 19. I recalled a poem written several years ago when he was younger ...
My dog is...
At times a simple-minded boy,
Having pleasure playing with his favorite toy,
At times a rebelling youngster, daringly defying my orders,
At times an amusing clown, bringing tears to my laughter,
At times an adoring baby, cuddling tightly in my arms,
At times a pleading child, with his head on my lap,
Persuasively saying, "Can I have some more snacks, please?",
My dog gives me mixed feelings...
Of amusement, frustration and affection...
Which all seems to humanize my very own existence!
