A Frantic Search For A Lost Mutt

November 19, 2023 by SUMMER LOTUS Leave a Comment

19th Nov 2023. 1 min read (poetry)

Author’s mutt, Happy

Happy, the love of my life

Everything was perfect about you except you were a runaway kid

When you went missing without my knowing

I did not relent as I went searching

Such a small creature could create so much upheaval in my being

At one point, I became so good at philosophizing

That I could handle a new beginning

But deep down, there was no pretending

That this event was too heartrending

When suddenly, a white shadow darted right

I leapt from the car and grabbed the mutt

By now, all terror stricken by the ‘wild’

But both of us were glad you were back in my arms like a child.

Thank God!
