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.

(big hugggsssssssss) Oh Chris, I'm so sorry about your loss, dearest friend, I know how it feels because when I was a little boy, around 8 years old, I had two kittens named Suky and Holly, and I love them so much but one day my Suky ran away and Holly passed away of a flu! (wipes tears) It still takes out so much in me thinking of their purrs and meows though I know they will always be purring from the heavens down on me! (sad sigh) My dearest sympathies to your missing of Pongo, sweet friend, I send angel hugs out to you, this is a very heartfelt and sincere expression from your heart, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Chris, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Sorry about that loss, a dog's company is much better than that of many men, I find.

What a spunky little poem -- I like this! You can be the bounce-back-man of poetry!

This made me laugh and cry at once. In other words, I reacted to your words, which is a good sign that you did a good job in presenting your tale. Or was that Pongo's tail?
LOL, never mind, I'm voting for it. Who could turn down a good Pongo read, a story about a boy's best friend?
Now if you'd go fix a typo or two...unless they were intentional, to make it sound like it was from a little boy?

Heart felt, I understand having lost a member of my family of canines. Dog lovers can relate to this honest pen.

Cute write but the spelling does take away from it (eg:ill instead of I'll) and surely little pongo deserves to be Pongo. I'm voting anyway. What you post here is your autograph, sign with pride.
