[hometext] => To my Smokey, 11 year old black lab/golden retriever, who died last year. If any of you have ever lost a beloved pet, you know what a difficult thing it really is....
[bodytext] => I stand beside her quietly
Deafened by the silence in the air My hands travel in kind Comforting strokes From her glossy ears To her heaving sides Lungs laboring for every breath I know it will not be long now For her pain to end Memories fill my eyes with tears This dying old friend That now lay so lifeless In my arms Is my greatest companion My most treasured friend My Charcoal puppy I always used to chase But never quite could catch Tell about my day Hold when I was lonely And cry to when I was sad She was always there Always close by Now she lay motionless On the vets cold, pitiless table Gasping for each breath of air Sickness invades her insides And her atrophied bones Refuse further work Looking in her eyes Beyond the cloudiness Through which she cannot see Lay the reflection Of her heart and soul Bigger than the sky And brighter than the sun I gaze into her soul Which stares back into mine I feel my heart melt As she slips out of this world And into the next Never to suffer again I know that no longer Can I chase her but not quite catch Or tell about my day Hold when I am lonely Or cry to when I am sad Although she is gone I know I have not lost her For she has always been there And always will be My charcoal puppy Will always have a place Deep inside my heart [comments] => 3 [counter] => 185 [topic] => 29 [informant] => horseluver [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => PetPoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
