Doggy-Stalgic

They enrich life day by day. By ones side they'll always stay. We only notice when they depart The paw prints they left on our heart. Looking back, there's a special joy... The canine with their favourite toy The clattering of excited paws The scrapes they made on wooden floors Their wagging tails, their messy eat Their obedience for a treat The way they sensed one feeling sad The lovely bond that once was had. Each a character of their own, One of the family. A part of home. These furry friends of ours will roam In treasured memories til our time has flown.

Natasha, your poem brought tears to my eyes. I have had to say farewell to so many of my pet over the years but like you wrote in your poem, "One of the family. A part of home." And "In treasured memories til our time has flown." A beautiful emotional poem, love it, a FAV, hugs, Constance

You beautifully encapsulate the joy, love, and cherished memories that our furry companions bring into our lives. As someone who has also experienced the joy and sorrow of having a furry friend by my side, your words touched me personally. Thank you for capturing the essence of our unique connection with our dogs and reminding us of their lasting imprint on our hearts. - Blessings, Daniel

Thank You Daniel. They stay with us always. For some, thinking about lost loved ones Animal or Human is very difficult and hurts too much. But for me, it has the opposite effect. Keeping them alive at heart brings joy and more so if we are feeling a little low. It is a sorrow not to have them around for a certainty and I miss the dogs. But it is lovely to think about them :-D :-D :-D
