The 9th Anniversary


It has been nine years since I adopted her.
She was like a daughter and that's for sure.
We were together for nearly seven years.
When I say that I loved her, I am sincere.
When I found her dead, I was horrified.
I felt pain when I learned that she died.
Losing such a wonderful dog is a disgrace.
She was one in a million and can't be replaced.

 

[Dedicated to Agnes (2011-2020) who I adopted nine years ago today on August 27, 2013]
