Sad - a Poem for Friday Writings and dVerse Quadrille

  Deepest Sleep

Awoke this morning

Feeling very sad

My dog died last night

Vet came to pronounce


There is no help for her

She must be put to sleep

My face on her neck

Slowly she went to sleep


Oh that I could join her darkness

    Oh Jim! I am so sorry for your loss. I know what it’s like to lose a beloved pet. You brought tears to my eyes with these lines:
    ‘My face on her neck
    Slowly she went to sleep
    Oh that I could join her darkness’.

    I'm sorry. Our 16-year-old Yorkie died three years ago with help from the vet. It was devastating to go through. I think of him so very often and always will.

    Oh, Jim. I'm so SO sorry. Our sweet little old lady rescue pup is 13 this year, and I dread this moment, so deeply. They truly do steal our hearts. This is a beautiful tribute to your lovely puppy girl. Wishing you all comfort and peace.

    So heartfelt! The simple, straightforward words express your loss and grief more deeply and powerfully than something more extravagant might. She was such a special being; even those of us who only met her online, via what you shared, could tell.
