Congratulations on your win. You deserved to win with this very heartfelt and sad story. Those who have lost pets know the pain. Having Angel as the narrator was brilliant
It certainly deserves a six.

Hi Jacquilyn,
This is a good poem that shows how loving dogs are and how hard good owners work to keep their dogs comfortable while alive. You did well it making the poem from the dog's perspective.
Sorry for you're loss.
Congrats on winning the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy

Your poem is so very touching and, of course, sad. We lose part of our family when we lose a pet. I may be wrong, but I think you work has already won the contest, so congratulations! Your poem is a fitting tribute to your pet. Evi

Author,
Your story is so sad; one I've been through a few times.
It's so traumatic to lose a pet. But I believe all good life God created, will be in Heaven for us.
Congrats on your first place!
Blessings,
Cindy

What a great way to remember your little girl. They are family!
I've never experienced anything like they way dogs and their humans have such a loving bond.
Perhaps it's because their time with us is so short that we adore them. I know that's how I've felt with all the dogs who've given my family so much love.

This is such a lovely, moving poem. It will resonate with all readers who have ever had to say good-bye to a beloved pet, especially one they've had for a long time.

I'm so sorry. The pain of losing a pet hits especially hard. Their devotion and unparalleled love is much to hard to live without. I like to think of all my beagles and my border collie up there now. Just waiting ...
Your poem was lovely. Thank you for sharing. Gretchen

This is a beautiful, heartfelt poem about a pet who was really a member of the family. The contest prompt rules said the entries should be rhyming poetry. However, your poem so adequately expresses Angel's love and devotion, and has a happy ending with Angel watching over you and enjoying her new surroundings. Best wishes in the contest..

I am so sorry for your loss. I know all too well how grief feels, and yes, our pets are family.
This was excruciatingly beautiful. I still grieve every one of my dogs and cats -- the last dog was many years ago now, but my precious Prissy was January of this year.
Best of luck in the contest with your lovely verse.
