Brokenhearted
My heart was stolen by your bright, clear eyes
Sleek fur, silky smooth, soft under my hand
when you were killed I was so traumatized
Had you only obeyed my last command?
Was a perfect day in garden enjoyed
Watering the lawn you scampered around
High summer sun a memory so spoiled
By end of the day you were underground.
Ocean was calling a trip to the beach
Summer waves rippled in delightful way
Fevered excitement then I lost all speech
My order ignored on that fatal day.
If only dear Lottie you had obeyed
These painful memories never assuaged.
