Cradled
Cradled,
you first arrived
within devoted arms
of a little mommy
so eager to love
her "little Muffy".
I spared you that,
named you Moxie,
watched you two scamper
throughout the seasons,
laughing, barking, confiding,
listening, protecting.
We said goodbye today,
couldn't help but notice
into each other's eyes
you gazed, within her lap,
cradled.

Rest in Peace, dearest Moxie "Muffy"
I HAD to do something with all this emotion - can't remember the last time I have cried so much. This will also be for Friday Flash 55 - but this is not fiction, it did happen today, January 15 - we lost the very best dog in the world to liver failure.
