My Dog

So sad was my dog Yesterday and last night In fear of his demise I prayed within the light I gave him medicine And worried awake Until dawn But wouldn’t you know His strength regained Amidst my weakest yawn Saw him chasing rabbits His strength returned so fast I think he played head games Pity was his power I fell deep line and sinker Believing he was done But the stinker betrayed My trust and I was gone
