Once there was a beautiful boy
blue eyes and snow white skin,
Huge smile melted many hearts
with dimple on his chin.
Innocence enlightened
all who came to see,
With rosey cheeks and baby squeaks
this boy had turned to be...
Spoiled rotten as a child
no discipline for wrong,
Though the adults would not spank him
for once baby did belong.
The teen years were a warning
of future all down hill,
Though no-one seems to care no more
he made his peers all ill.
Marriage, he tried his best
though never was he taught,
When respect is taken
respect it should be brought.
Volatile to his wife
relationship had crumbled,
she disappeared and back not peered
at 'it' that made her humbled.
Though he was sad she left him
he did not understand,
Consequences come about
quite often much unplanned.
Temper could not be controlled
with spite now in his core,
Raging at all others
trouble even more...
Like a puzzle piece which never fit
confinement they arranged,
Ponder some- the baby boy
his life and where it changed.

Ozzie oh Ozzie
Ozzie was a Newfoundland dog
This dog was like a big ball of cushion
He had a body of a bear and innocent look of child
He was soft in and out, well crafted, black and white
He weighed around 150 pounds
He loved to run- he had the most majestic run
I loved watching him, took so many videos of him
Rewind a little step back......me as an adult
Coming to a new culture, I was very disgusted by how pets were treated
I was like - how can animals be treated better than humans?
I was confused and had a lot of "nice" things to say about this new pet culture
Rewind back........I was around 12
I got a beating from my brother for throwing cold dish water on one of our dogs
I was an angry teen
Rewind back, way back........around 7 years
Me and my sister cried so hard when we watched one of our brothers kill and bury little puppies
His reason being, we didn't have food to feed them and nobody would take them
I guess, population control
I was an innocent kid
Around same year or year after, we lost Tommy a beloved dog of the family that had been with us for years
His burial was in style, none like that in our village
We buried him like a human and even wrote an epitaph for him
We all loved him
Thank you Ozzie for taking the angry teen and the confused adult out of me
And bringing back the innocent kid
I will always love you, because of you my love for pets blossomed!
