Once I felt pain



My loving dog !
I once felt pain-
while he
standing beside me
with his usual glee,
wondering why fate
decreed he would
be born
as a hound
despite the abundant
divine qualities
within his faithful heart.

I have had several special dogs over my long-life span. Each one was such a nice dog in their own way. The most special one to me was a female Chihuahua. She was right by my side and such a loving little animal. Sara K

I can see that a dog is divine, maybe more than a person. Great poem.
