The Last of His Kisses


The barking has stopped, but there is no relief.
The last of the tumbleweeds have been swept. 
The gentle tapping of the too-long nails,
The happy thumping of excitable tails, 
The last of wet kisses - now memories wept. 
The barking has stopped, but there is no relief.

 

For Hapi, Buddy, and Chloe
