My Puppy

My Puppy

Day one: 
Haiku: always together // here puppy where are you boy // see her all alone

Always together                                                                 
What went wrong?                                                               
Fighting for the pillow made of a feather                            
What went wrong?
Cuddled under cold weather                                           
What went wrong?
Biting on one another                                                                
You two always belong                                                           
Playing with your brother                                     
Barking to any song
Running around your dear mother
She felt something is wrong

Day two: 
Haiku: Over his body // sad to see you went away // blood on car fender.

Today I see my pup alone
Where can you be?
I can sadly hear her moan
Where can you be?
Not stepping out of her zone
Where can you be?
Missing you, my puppy began to roam
My pup can finally see
You have left her alone
Letting out a howl, she is calling me
I ran out of my home
To see, my pup cry a tune so sadly
A pair, you left her alone
For her, I feel so badly
Now she has no one to take her bone
A bowl you to always share
A love for each other so rare
Both came with brown coat medium shaggy hair
I never knew a dog can deeply care
Who said life for a dog is fair?
Sad to know my pup knew she lost her pair.

Day three: 
Haiku: Digging up a hole // my puppy smelled terrible  // rest in peace, dad dig.

((I added a special 3-day haiku when my pup was missing ))

This is very touching Linda. We have different pets at home, and it's always sad when we lose any of them. Hugs // paul

I remember this sad one. She really died then? You added on the haiku about her. also came here to say, Glad you liked my poem, PD. I didn't know how fast I could come up with a poem like that! But I waited to post it late because I like to space time between my posts. You are bringing down the house in rose poems. GEEEEZ

It's a good write- Had me all the way- I loved it- Its not a true rhyme- maybe a Blank Verse- I have lost so many dogs- I wish they were smarter- although Ace has been here with me for 8 years now- as stupid as a pit bull is he has managed very well

Wow, Destroyer, this one is sad, our heads and our hearts, are in the same place, if you care to read my poem, In Memory of a Cat, written yesterday, you will understand. Thanks for your comment on my slamming attempt, just to let you know, I will be adding/changing to it before the end, if that is okay, like already I changed the name~~Dear Heart~~

what is Chris talking about here, P.D.? Nice to see you here tonight. Yes, even though I did not really live thru a lot of the stuff I wrote of in that poem (since I was just a baby then), I am pretty sure they WERE the best of the good old days. America has never known such prosperity as it had in that era!!
