On The Impermanence and The Importance of Pets

The loss of a dear friend,

Even one all covered in fur,

Can leave a dent in your wall.

But it's a dent you can paint a picture in,

You choose the colours, the size, the fonts.

It's an image that lives forever in the recesses of your mind.

As if the friend still remained there,

Right by your side.

Loyal,

Loving,

Listening,

And kind.
