LOL Black Labradors are difficult to say goodbye too. We had one and a yellow Labrador too. Wonderful dogs. Actually, my favorite breed. Both were raised with my boys. Wonderful poem. I got stuck on the saying goodbye to the dog.

    Thank you very much, Barbara. We just got a female dog, Muffing, she is very cute and barks a lot ... lol ... we got her at our local animal rescue. She is a terrier and other mix.

    Give your dog a hug from me. My Harley is a barker.

I myself remember my great uncle's farm of cocoa, it was always a time of pleasure and great memories. This poem brought me back to that place, and is very relatable. I love your bright colors and the overall mood of the verses.

    Thank you very much, RJ. Haiku should make you pause and think about the satori so I am happy my haiku brought good memories.

I get this one. Sometimes a dog is more than just a friendly dog. He or she can be a soul mate. They know what we need and exactly how to give it. Beautiful and heartwarming. Gretchen

Love the illustration. And how could anyone say goodbye to that trusty friend? A vivid little story captured in that limited syllable form. Well done, Gypsy! Debbie

Yes, that's always hard to say goodbye to a good fur buddy! Thanks for the great thought. So much to say goodbye to when school starts - especially the sleeping in part.
