Charles Messina Poet Verse

Finally Home

With his droopy eyes; still 
Saddened...by the unknown 
I see in his face...loneliness
 
When I left him, confusion over-load 

Nor did he ever know, 
Would I ever return
 
I could still hear him as I waved driving away 
I could still see his wandering eyes through the bay window

He was ever so happy 

When finally...
 
I returned 

Home 


Our best friends never know if when we leave...when and if we would ever return. Dogs sense when we part for a few days, on vacation, work duty...or some other reason. But when we come home...it's pure joy and happiness for them...and likewise
