Ollie the Dog

This is a poem based on my 6 year old dog and me recently passed mother. Hope you enjoy.

He walks to his bed
Once it hits eight
He knows it's time for bed
But even in bed, he'll wait.

He awaits for her return
He believes she'll be back
It's been an exact year
Since her world went black.

His best friend is dead
He's got not one clue
The life of a dog
Is one I wish I knew.
