Missing a dog

What is it like

To miss your own dog?

When someone you care about,

Is forced to leave your home?

I remember the little things,

Like forgetting to give you a walk,

Like hearing you playfully bark,

Like giving you lots of cuddles.

I will never forget,

The mistakes I made,

When raising you.

Sometimes I wondered,

When you’re whining in your sleep,

Was it actually my fault,

Or was it something else?

Our last moment together,

Was when I was forced to,

Send you to the pound,

Several years later,

I still wonder,

How was your life?

What happened after I left you?

Did you meet a brand new family?

Ringo,

I still miss you.
