WELCOME HOME
There's something about the wag of a tail, and
a small treasure in the smile that curls along
the lipline of a furry muzzle.
There's something in those canine gestures that
provokes a Pavlovian response and immediately
curls my own lips into a stupid grin.
*RIP Beaux, my fave canine buddy who was put to sleep this morning*

I am so sorry to hear of your loss. I know this grief intimately. You've turned it into a wonderful little observation. Who can resist smiling back?
ReplyDeleteHaving watched my 14-year-old dog, Scully pass away in June, well, this opens up a wound just scabbed over. Sorry for your loss and I totally understand your feelings here.
