POEM 7, week July 19, 2021
Make the title of your poem
"What I Remember"
and then let the title inspire you.
Line count minimum: 12, no max
Feel free to use any form you like
What I remember
Remember fifteen years
Love of the canine breed
It is when we first meet
An instant click.
Fox-terrier, you were
Loyal, goofy, and smart
Closed you into my heart
Went all the way.
Those last days of sorrow
Old, grey, and with a fit
Your eyes suddenly lit
-it's time to go.
I held you in my arms
Carried you in the night
And at morning light
Off to the vet.
So, there you were put down
I watched you leave this world
Back home in bed, I curled
I was alone.
My little friend, my all
Rest in peace; you'll be missed
Within two months, I kissed
Another dog.
