Floppy - My Mascot Poem by Sandra Martyres
Floppy - My Mascot
Every day after you walked out on me
I hoped and prayed that I could flee
Flee from the city I shared with you
Flee from everything that reminded me
Of the long evenings spent together
Sharing views on everything even the weather
But alas that was not to be
I could not leave this riveting city
So I continued to feel only loneliness and pain
More so when there was torrential rain
This went on for a very long time
I lived with my fears and unsung rhyme
Till the day I met Floppy a street dog
He wagged his tail so lovingly
The very first time he set his eyes on me
I took him home and he made my day
Since then he's been my mascot
And never has he strayed away
Truly a very touching poem, Sandra, and rich in emotional undertones. Mascots are nice (mine is a little brown chihuahua named Thomas) . :)
What a lovely and happy ending. It's so special when two souls fill the void in each other. Loved it! A '10+! ' Best Wishes, Marilyn
Wonderful poignant one here Sandra...dogs are so faithful to kindness aren't they...Fi 10+++
Oh! Floppy was your Knight, sent to help you recover. So happy for you and him both. What's the old saying..when God closes a door; somewhere he opens a window. Guess we know what came inside your window..(smile)
