A Loyal Dog

Poem based on the life of my old dog, Snowy.

Night falls
her eyes wander the trees

One stranger
will not pass without her bark
of warning

Cream white fur
of thick warmth
a polar bear from a distance

Intelligence rest on
her brown eyes

Abused pup
to great protector

Not apart like strangers
not together as friends

But loyalty watches over me
making me feel save as I sleep

  1. I really like this poem. It reminds me of my old dog I had who unfortunetly died. She was the best. But anyway very good job on this poem. It has good description and details. I don't have a favorite line in this poem because I love the whole thing! ^.^
