My Buddy


We were in tune.
We were both wild
under the moon.
I've been bereft
ever since you left,
and you left
too soon.

for Susan's prompt at Mid Week Motif: Best Friend

    This brought tears to my eyes--my Sasha is slowing down and I will be bereft when she leaves--

    I still dream about my goldie. She always kept her eye on me.
    A special and dear friend to be sure Sherry.

    Bereft, indeed, Sherry. I shudder to think how my husband will be after Lindy is gone. I have loved and lost many dogs, since I was very small, and although I will also, one day, mourn our darling Lindy, and feel bereft, I don't think Dick is prepared for the dreadful pain of it.
    Luv, K

    I hear you, Sherry. There are those one time relationships.... They can never be repeated.

    They give so much in their short lives that their loss is overwhelming. I am glad your furry friend featured.
