My Dog.

Yesterday
I came to know
My dog died.

My dog was __ yrs old.
He wasn't really my dog.
He was a stray. The last
Of the two left
From a littler of five

For the last couple of days
I couldnt see him.
I'd whistle
But he wouldnt come bounding up.
I suspected
He had died.

Yesterday
I came to know
My dog died.

He liked meat bones.
He wouldn't eat anything else.
Maybe a little milk.
But nothing else.

Yesterday
I came to know
My dog died

and

The garbage truck carried him away.
