Poem
Bill Bulldog was our gorgeous British Bull Dog. We were so lucky to have Bill in our lives for eleven wonderful years. Bill was like no other dog we ever had before. A gentle boy ~ a character! My granddaughter was always scared of dogs, but adored Bill, for to her he wasn’t a dog ~ he was a ‘Bill’. A face only his Mother could love and she did Bill bulldog was his name Bill was a character Bill was adorable Bill knew it ~ he was such a Diva Bill had so many facial expressions blinking his eyes rapidly – Bill’s pathetic look jutting his jaw forward – Bill’s naughty look tossing his head in disdain – Bill’s diva look bounding toward you whilst running sideways ~ Bill’s ‘get out of my way look ~ I don’t think I can stop’ Bill on rising would roll on his back ~ legs in the air ~ rocking from side to side as if welcoming a new day ~ you could almost hear him shrieking with glee Bill loved all homosapiens for what they might have in their pockets Bill was always on the lookout for treats Bill ignored other dogs – never thinking he was one Bill’s snoring kept me awake – stereophonic sounds with hubby joining in too as he aged Bill became a late riser needing gentle persuasion to go for a pee aghast that we had woken him at such an unearthly hour Bill’s fierce demeanor was a mask he wore to hide his loving character Bill would lick you to death Bill loved to lick but licking his food was not something Bill did Bill would gulp it down at the speed of light Bill was our handsome Boy Bill was a ‘one off’ – for when they made Bill they broke the mould Bill was unique Bill was our Boy Bill brought us so much laughter and tears Bill I miss you so… Written 30th July 2019 3rd PLACE Contest: Writing Challenge 3, July 2019 – List Sponsor: Dear Heart Contest Strand Pick 5 Sponsor Brian Strand N/A
