Deserted

"Write an animal poem."


My life is not the same,
with both dogs gone my heart hurts.
Sadness is quite a drain.
My life is not the same.
My smiles are merely feigned.
Nowhere can I find comfort.
My life is not the same,
with both dogs gone my heart hurts.

About purplepeninportland

I am a freelance poet, born and bred in Brooklyn, New York. I live with my husband, John, and two charming rescue dogs–Marion Miller and Murphy. We spent eight lovely years in Portland, OR, but are now back in New York. My goal is to create and share poetry with others who write, or simply enjoy reading poetry. I hope to touch a nerve in you, and feel your sparks as well.

    Oh, I feel that pain. I haven’t been dogless in about 25 years. But each one leaving feels heartbreaking. hugs to you.
