A Poem for Andre before Dying

Image
ANDRE Nov. 14, 1997-Feb. 2, 2011 A kiss goodnight for my dying dalmatian dog Andre who dies... And a poem to keep his memories alive. May you truly go to your place in the sun. If I never really gave you proper dog training, and kept you wild at heart and spirit In death I am indebted to your childlike behavior and total loyalty and so you will remain forever in my heart. For the best-looking dog in the whole neighborhood, ...those round brown eyes and a coat of well-distributed spots of black on white and my best guard against the stupid stray cats not to mention the stupider turkey who used to be in your place, May you rest with memories of a happy adoptee. I love you Andre!  Goodnight. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (I hope the writer doesn't mind) FEBRUARY TOMATOES ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Until winter relaxes her long thin fingers When will we taste again our favorite fruit
