The dog ran free,
where he was at,
wanting to chase
his friend the cat

A few years ago, I had the opportunity to go on safari in southern Africa. One of the greatest thrills was going out at night looking for predators on the prowl: lions, leopards, hyenas....As we drove through the darkness, though, our spotlight occasionally lit up a smaller hunter – a slender, tawny feline, faintly spotted or striped. The glare would catch the small cat for a moment before it darted back into the shadows. More at The Conversation ➜

Forever, more.
A word
More than ever.
Resolves the ills
Of the World.
Commitment to
A cause
Forever.
Enduring to you,
As devotion

A stray dog,
lay in the street.
He was trying to rest,
he had nothing to eat.
Being rested,
was the second best thing;
the first was the water
and the food it could bring.
A shelter or a loving home
is what he wanted
and to not live alone.

Forlorn is the cat
who waits patiently
for someone to appear,
so it can still see,
the caring picture of love today.
I hear him now and will
stay, not go away.

You weren't a fancy dog
with fur of dark grey,
but you were our dog,
with us you would stay.
You brought us much joy,
for all of 17 years,
your leaving brought many tears.
The happiness you brought,
was the best there was.
There was no reason,
it was just because,
you were the sweetest story
in this short life of yours,
living with us forever,
your Soul in the Stars.

I am a small little dog.
A Shih Tzu, to you.
My name is Pepe'
I love what I do.
That's to play fetch.
If you'll play with me,
I'll play for hours
And do it for free.
I was out in the street,
Where I'm not supposed to be,
Got hit by a Lincoln,
Much bigger than me.
My parents do take
Good care, you see,
So a trip to the Vet,
Who checked me out,
Then back home,
Where the family did provide,
All the love that I needed.
As for the Lincoln, it drove away,
and me, I'm back chasing
Balls thrown my way.

(Ode to my late grand dog
who is no longer with us.)
