The Trouble With Dogs by L.J. Diaz

The trouble with

dogs is

they leave us

far too soon.

And,

unlike people,

they are

irreplaceable.

Her eyes behold

the key to my soul,

sold the day I

brought her home.

The day

she chose me

felt like all my

Christmases,

come at once.

I don’t know

if she realized

how much I

would miss her.

Sadness overwhelms

my eyes

because they

cannot see her.

I hope that

she knew,

she gave me

the best days

too.

About the Author

Laura is thirty-something and was born and raised in a ‘blink and you’ll miss it’ village in rural England, UK. She emigrated to the USA a little over two years ago, married the love of her life in her dream Las Vegas wedding, and now resides in Los Angeles, California with her husband, in a little shack by the beach.

 Laura believes that animals have the best souls, and dreams of a day where extinction is extinct. She hates suffering of any kind and is a gentle soul. She is the oldest child she knows and still believes in Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. She is yet to stroke a unicorn, talk with a mermaid, and hunt for vampires, but these things are on her bucket list. Laura has faith in the power of prayer, is convinced that tiny miracles happen countless times a day and believes in magic. She finds witchcraft intriguing and would like to bottle sunshine to cure gloomy days. She is a compulsive bookworm and will not leave the house without her kindle.
