Write a 5-7-5 poem on a loved one (animal)


This happened on Christmas Eve in 2014

Two houses down from me owners came to check on their Summer Holiday house and Paco, curious, slipped in unseen.

An hour later, they locked up and returned to the city.

I went looking for him when he didn t return and he heard me calling his name and replied .. every hour in the freezing cold and snow I went back to reassure him ..

... next day ( Christmas Day ) got hold of owners on the phone and they sent their maid to open up.

Paco flew out, dashed home and spent the whole day on the couch sleeping ..

me too, I was stressed out and exhausted.
