Love Poem: Our Family Beloveth

Our Family Beloveth

He 
was the
runt of the
litter who was
kicked to the curb by
his siblings. Defenseless
to nourish his fragile frame,
therefore, with our intervention
we were successful in that regard.
For twenty years, he was part of our
household, a dog deeply loved by
us. When he passed away, was
our most sad day and wept
near each time we made 
a course toward
his grave out
~in the
back.
