Memories

My old sweet dog
tangled with fog
and ate like a hog

Old dear Buster
quiet and adjuster
who gave me a fluster

he left in such a hurry
I would do anything to feel that furry
dog, in my memory, blurry

If you could see the sorrow
would you borrow
my heart and come back tomorrow

I don't care what they say
memories replay
I my head, oh take me away

So now goodbye
I tried not to cry
but you held my emoition supply

Hello Emily, it is so sad to lose a pet. After all they are part of the family. Hopefully you will get another pet some day. Have a nice day my friend.

G'day Emily … a dog offers unconditional love without boundaries and to lose a friend like that is heartbreak enclosed by memories. Nicely written Emily - Lindsay

Such beautiful penning Emily, I like the rhyme and flow too. Great memories of old Buster, dogs become such friends so when they leave us they're sorely missed. Have a blessed day,Gordon
