 * Ode to My Dog

White, red, velvet to the touch, small heart on the paw. Received on a trip, hated so much, reminding me of what I saw.

Went down the bunny slope- Flying...Gliding...Crash! Tumbling down, without hope, running away in a dash.

Jumping like a monkey, I stumbled upon the canine. Appeared to be awfully friendly, was not sure, if it was mine.

Came morning, of my big day at last I am nine! The sky says to come out and play- Surprise! The dog is now mine!

Sitting on my bed, was a small beacon of hope. Putting thoughts in my head of how I can cope.
