Almost Three Years
A poem about the time we got to spend with our beloved family dog that recently passed.

Benny the dog.
Covid brought him home,
a speeding truck took him back–
time cut short, loved still.

I'm so sorry for your loss! Benny looks like such a good boy. We have a black cat named Bennie and he's a sweetheart too. I hope the pain is less every day and the happy memories make you smile more and more!
This was so beautiful and sad 😞
Wow so much in so few words. Beautiful
Aww, Benny. What a good boy. I really felt this.
