This was a beautiful nonet and it made cry. That heart-stopping loyalty does occur and dogs especially have a gift of this loyalty.

Beautifully written, I see the winner here. Good luck in the contest.

Dear Mystery Writer,

I have seen this dog or a similarly dedicated one recently on social media. He doesn't know his master is gone forever, but still tries to meet his arrival each day. So sad~

Your poem was lovely and the syllables were all just right. Thanks so much!

Excellent

well, what happened to this one's? Bless his heart. Did he die or what?
You're leaving us with a mystery, here. ;)
Even so, it's a very good Nonet, with a sad message. And a great picture to accompany it.

Thanks for the thoughtful review. I guess this past year has left a few dogs wondering and worrying about where their friends have gone. All the best to you, cheers, j

Ah, I see. At least I think you're using dogs as a symbol. Very good!
