Labor Of Love Her labor of love began from the start, When playing, feeding, they pushed her apart, A large litter, siblings thought her a runt, Fed from mom's rival, thought her as an aunt. We were part of each other, playfully, When hit by a car, held her tenderly, A ball in my mitt, she fit like a glove, Unceasingly, looks, her labor of love. Growing up, my human friends, I parted, Distant came news, her last days, bighearted, Her labor of love, gone, on my return, Yellow pup, named Banana, that she, earn. Like the stars when glittery, was her Bow, And the Moon that shone brightly, was her Wow! 2019 September 28 *2nd Place* Write a Rhyme about your favorite PET, living or not ~~Regina Riddle
