I Am With You

There was a part of me that went with you.
As I sit in the yard in your spot, sun shining and blue.
I wish I could hear your bark as you always used to do,
Trusting we would run out and play with you.

From the howling of the harmonica
And...

This poem spoke to me as I lost my dog/best friend this month to bone cancer. The nights after we said our final goodbyes, I would lay on our back deck and look to the skies. I admit, I thought I saw some mysterious twinkle. But when I glanced back at that spot, it was gone. Almost as if he showed me that he is okay. But now, as the days go by, I feel as if he speaks to me through my sister's dogs. They show the same mannerisms that he did. They give more kisses like he did. Almost as if he trusted them to look out for me and to never let me feel alone. This poem portrays that story and it really called out to me.
