CYCLE OF LIFE
Shining in a desert night sky
fiery stars above me burn
I await my master’s return
A car, not his, passes me by.
Darkness descends… I dare not cry.
She turned around, headlights shimmered
then stopped nearby, her eyes glimmered.
Ten years together, I face death
Her heart cries out at my last breath
Dark descends…eyes grow dimmer.

-
3 lines 5 syllables – 7 syllables – 5 syllables
His eyes glint, my heart
fills with frost as my dog barks
at the psychopath.
Nice line: “Her heart cries out at my last breath”

I can’t think of a greater gift to another soul than to know that when we adopt our 4-footed family, we will probably out live them.

My coon cats were abandoned in the woods. My Pretty Pittie was abandoned in the woods. They have a family now. It might not be perfect, but when they take their last breaths I will mourn for them.

I can never understand or forgive people who abandon animals or mistreat them . They must be subhuman to do so ! 💜
