My dear oh pongo,
Why did you have to go?
I remember when I first seen you.
All I said was, 'Hello'

I wish you were here.
Here with me.
Oh how I miss,
Playing by that tree.

Me and you,
Would run around
And play ball.
But now, I'm just down.

I will never see you again.
Oh but how I loved you.
And ill never see you.
Now, I have the blues.

You went because,
My other dog
Went out,
If the fog.

He couldn't see
And he bit some foe
But now I know.
He didn't know.

My pongo had to go
Even if he didn't want to.
Ill never forget you pongo,
And I will always love you.

Its now time,
To stop these words.
Before I go too far.
And tell you bout my bird.

I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait.

A sweet poem. It reminded me of that disney classic 101 dalmations. "oh Pongo, what would she want to do with our puppies...." But seriusly, I enjoyed your poem, ad encourage you to keep up the good work!

Chris, I'm so sorry about your dog. If you read my poem about my Scooter you'll know how I feel about my little doggy...."My Little Dog---My Baby". I never thought I would be this attached to an animal, but I sure am.

Love makes the world go 'round (unkown)
with love and hugs from Ethel

Wind,

That is why i named pongo pongo, is because of 101 dalmations.. The in the movie was a dalmation and named pongo, and my dog was a dalmation so i would call him pongo.. lol.. He knew his name. All you had to do is has PON and hes allready to ya.. He was a cool dog... Thank you guys for the nice replies.

I wish to become a great poet some day, but it will only come in time. Til then, I shall write my poems, and wait.

You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Chris, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
