Bo Poem by Ima Ryma

Bo was one of the family.
Rescued from a shelter, the pup
Was full of playful energy,
Ready for whatever was up.
Then one sad day, Bo became lost.
We looked all through the neighborhood,
House to house, back and forth, criss crossed.
We posted flyers. It did no good.
Hope for Bo's return slipped away.
We accepted that he was gone.
But then, there came a happy day.
A dog was barking on the lawn.

Out of the blue, back home came Bo.
We lost that pup 5 years ago.
