Love Poem: The Dog

The Dog

The dog with short black fur
The dog with brown eyes
The dog with a curly black tail
The dog with a pushed-in nose
The dog that runs with a limp
The dog that sleeps outside my door
The dog that tries to catch birds
The dog that hurts in the winter
The dog that loves tail rubs
The dog that watches for crumbs
The dog that will eat anything
The dog that is six feet under
The dog that has broken my heart
