Poem #18- Raising Rooney- "In Which I Am A Heartless Beast"

 


Tonight's poem is a nonet- a nine-line poem that starts with nine syllables, and decreases by one syllable a line, until the last line has only one syllable. 

"In Which I Am a Heartless Beast"

When people find out sweet Roo will leave,

The response is always the same

"I could never give him back,"

Like I am coldhearted,

an uncaring beast,

whose closest friend

dies and she

does not

grieve.

(c) Carol Wilcox, 2021

  1. I actually think you have a bigger than ordinary heart, to be able to pour everything into the dog so that someone else can live their best life. Fooey on anyone who thinks otherwise!

  3. I completely agree with Mary Lee. It has to be such a hard thing to spend so much time with a dog only to send it on to another owner. Think about the difference Rooney will make in someone's life - and because of the great start you gave him.

  4. I've always seen your big heart as I've watched Rooney grow from cute pup into service dog. You've given so much and you will grieve when it's time, but what a gift for someone in need.
