The old man down on the corner
I never did know his name.
He just died early one day
seems his name was James.

No family was left the obit said
He had an old dog called  Baxter
Now laying at the front door.
Just  whimpering for his master.

Now the neighbors  don't like it
The dog carrying on that is
So I take  a leash and a treat
and take him and his food dish.

I don't know why I did this but it
broke my heart to hear him cry
And I  got the dog a warm blanket
to make him comfortable and dry.

Now that was two years ago
And it took a bit of time and  tact
To get that old dog to trust me
So we just made a little pact.

But he was never truely mine
Old James was ever his master
I think he knew I loved him too
And he was  faithful  Old Baxter.

Now Old Baxter died today
To be reunited with Old James
I'll miss my long time guest
And yes I feel a twinge of pain.

Is this another true story Katy?  If so, I'm so sorry for your loss even if Baxtor was never really your dog.  I love your poetry because it is filled with so much emotion...

Yes it's true but he died about a yr ago so the pain has eased.. I just came across it cleaning out my documents and thought someone might enjoy it.
