I originally wrote this poem 9-12-15. It is dear to my heart. It's a true story that happened in my childhood- Alexis
When daddy brought you
home l loved you instantly.
You were my friend and
my protector.
Throughout the years you
became part of the family.
My love for you will never end.
There's a special place in my
heart reserved for you alone.
As l look back down memory
lane. I remember the day you
left us. That sad day is forever
engraved in my memory.
On this day you ran out the gate
into on coming traffic and got hit
by a car. I cried until the tears had
no longer fell. I was devasted l not
only lost my pet dog, I lost one
of my family members.
Daddy buried you in the back yard
of the old house. Rest in peace my
beloved Big Red.
