Therapy Dog

. . Adi Beagle Dog 

 Adi Beagle dog and I were a pair 

 We were a registered Therapy Pair

 Registered animal therapy pair 

 Visiting folk who're not doing so well  

She loved visiting the Alzheimers wing 

The folk there loved her so and she loved them 

 They would tell her about their dogs at home 

 Adi'd listen intently, lovingly 

 Adi died in 2012, we miss her 

 So now she's in Dogy Heaven, minding

 Minding the sick and troubled . . .

Breathtaking

  

It takes your breath away 

Don't go near what I found 

This time seems out of world 

A lake of water pink 

Rainbow inching away 

Daybefore pearly blue 

Boats being rowed around 

Around and under it

No boats today splashing 

Splashes would burn your skin 

Chemicals unheard before 

A new world has been made 

World above and below 

World not fit for beings 

Even scientists don't know 

"Stay away, burn to ashes."
