Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Sonnet

A Famiy Dog Passes

Bailey is getting worse
Her illness is cancer
She is brought to the vet
We gather around the bed
Everyone pets Bailey
With tears being shed
Everyone says goodbye
While the vet doctor 
Injects the final shot
A Basset Hound so sweet
She will be missed by love ones
Such a gentle dog and quiet
She was loved by all
A dog like her will be 
Remembered always
So difficult to say good bye

Andrea Dietrich August 7, 2018 at 5:21 PM I'm sorry for the loss of this magnificent dog, DArlene. I recall your emails to me about it and I am sorry I never saw this poem until now. Darlene De Beaulieu August 7, 2018 at 7:50 PM Hello Andrea yes the passing of Bailey was very heart breaking for the whole family. Kelly's youngest boys are very upset. She was their first dog. In time they will heal. Have a nice evening my friend.
