My husband and I had to put down our dog recently because of a sudden and terminal heart condition. As a way to say good-bye, I scribbled down a few lines here (even though my poetry is on par with a 12 year-old’s).

Ernie was a big yellow Labrador and my very good friend. He will be sorely missed.

Yellow

My friend is yellow furry love
that loped beside me when I ran
Deep waters of the seas he swam
the River and my pond on Holbrook land

My friend is a yellow sunshine beam
that touched my nose with a kiss of steam
He licked my tears and warmed my feet
and knocked my hand for a pat and a treat

Yellow, mellow, soft and sweet
Friendly to the ones he’d meet
On walkabout he did roam
the neighborhood on his own

My friend is a yellow golden lion
who wrestled a skunk and a snake and a Dane
His jaw was massive and white with fangs
But a Gentle Giant beneath his mane

He followed me behind the horse
stuck to the trail and stayed on course
He never asked for much at all
Just a bed and food and a bone and some balls

Somehow eleven years passed by
Big E stayed yellow to my eyes
It’s I that grayed and grew so old
Not my friend of fuzzy yellow gold

For he is the color of all things new
Like the morning sun
And the sparkle of dew
Soft and bright and warm to hug because
Yellow is the color of my canine love
