Depart Odoriferous Grief
An excited yelp…
A warning growl…
A cry for help…
A lonely howl…
Just some of the sounds in the air,
I long to hear.
A cold nose kiss…
Warm tongue washes…
Tail wagging bliss…
Welcome-home bounding crashes!
Memories, more than I can bear …
I wish you were here.
A bowl full of food not touched,
A habit not easily broken.
For your leash I reached,
A painful reminder – your name unspoken.
A faithful companion no longer near.
The parting of a friend dear.
May your forever be,
Frolicking across sun-kissed meadow…
Midday rests under the shady tree…
Where cool waters continuous flow.
Run free my friend – do not fear…
Just allow me the occasional tear.
