Dondon's Woofritings

Fly, fly Dondon -- oo(*..*)oo

Fly, fly precious one.
Your endless journey has begun.

Take your gentle happiness,
far too beautiful for this.

Cross over to the other shore,
where there is peace forevermore.

But hold this mem'ry bittersweet,
until we meet.

Fly, fly do not fear.
Don't waste a breath, don't shed a tear.

Your heart is pure, your soul is free,
be on your way, don't wait for me.

Above the universe you'll climb,
on beyond the hands of time

The moon will rise, the sun will set,
but I won't forget.

Fly, fly little wing.
Fly where only angels sing.

Fly away, the time is right
Go now...find the light.

Haircuts! -- oo(*..*)oo

I have some words to say about my short haircut! :0) Once a year, always in November, I have a short haircut as here we are entering Summer and it's very hot! I do not know if I look pretty or not -- I can't count on Mommy's opinions as for her, I'll always be the prettiest boy ever! But I have to say that the 'girls' seem to love it as when I'm back from the pet store, they welcome me with a bunch of kisses and sniffs. After being bathed and having my haircut, they dress me with an elegant bow tie and I feel very 'impawtant', a Mr. Dondon! Mommy said that by January, my 'short haircut' will turn into a 'puppy cut' and I'll be extra pretty and cute to spend Summer! :OD When Summer will be gone, I'll be the same with a brand new fur!
Bye, bye pals!

From a Blind Dog -- oo(*..*)oo

I cannot see you Mommy, when you cuddle me so near.
And yet I know you love me, it's in the words I hear.

I cannot see you Daddy, when you hold me by your side
But still I know you love me when you tell me so with pride.

I cannot see to run and play out in the sun so bright
For here inside my tiny head it's always dark as night.

I cannot see the treats you give when I am extra good
But I can wag my tail in Thanks just like a good dog should.

"He cannot see. The dogs no good" is what some folks might say
"He can't be trained, he'll never learn He must be put away."

But not you, Mom and Daddy You know that it's alright
Because I love you just as much as any dog with sight.

You took me in, you gave me love and we will never part
Because I'm blind with just my eyes, I see you in my heart.
