A poem about love and loyalty

A Veterans Memories Breeze By In the Wind

 

 


 

 

As the breeze sets in

And the sun sets down on me

I comfortably sit on a cliff with my dog Biff

Watching the waves of the ocean

Dance onto the ocean shore

 

As I sit with my arm around my best buddy Biff

Pondering about the good old days

Oh, how I remember the times we shared

The special moments you showed me how much you cared

The long days you waited for me

 

When I journeyed far from home

Miles and miles,

I flew into foreign land

To protect the ones I love back home

To protect the land we live in

 

Oh, how I cherish this great land of ours

After seeing the darkness that surrounds us

By far

 

Many days and nights,

When I was away

I thought to myself

Oh, how I missed my dog Biff

 My friend,

My pal,

My little furry man

 

My little buddy

Biff who stood by my side

Each time I came home

 

Who watched me weep,

Who watched me heal,

Who watched me laugh,

 Who watched me mourn

And who watched me dance

When times were nice

 

Oh, how I treasure my dog Biff

Remembering all the times,

We shared together

All the time his love kept me going

Without end

 

When times were tough

And oh so rough

Biff was always there

 

Oh what a special dog

He is

 

As he sits on the cliff next to me

Staring at me with his big brown eyes

As the sun fades from sight
and daytime is quickly turning to night


I think quietly to myself

One dog,

One friend,

And a lifetime of memories to cherish to the end

Beautifully written Stacey!
I love how cats and dogs bond to us.
God gave us BEST friends forever!
Only thing is we usually outlive our pets.
But we have a lifetime of treasures.
May peace be with you, may love overflow, and blessings follow you on your journey in life.

Let's hope Biff never has to go to war.
