This old dog <br />has not one substantial leg left <br />on which to run <br />Neither to fight or chase <br />after his one true love <br />now that she’s gone___ <br />This old dog <br />may be old but… <br />he is wise enough to know <br />that she will eventually <br />have to do what all old dogs do; <br />find her a good place to lie down…. <br /> <br /> <br />2008 © TS<br /><br />Ted Sheridan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/stays-and-runaways/
