Almost Three Years
A poem about the time we got to spend with our beloved family dog that recently passed.
Covid brought him home,
a speeding truck took him back–
time cut short, loved still.

Rip This To Shreds (Please?)
L.C. Shaëfer and Paul Stewart inspired me to finally participate in the #IronMaiden critique challenge. (Go check out their articles, linked previously.) I have made a list of stories I feel could use more insights, whether from lack of engagement here, or because they were rejected elsewhere, or simply because I've come to cringe at them and would like to like them again.

I'm so sorry for your loss! Benny looks like such a good boy. We have a black cat named Bennie and he's a sweetheart too. I hope the pain is less every day and the happy memories make you smile more and more!
This was so beautiful and sad 😞
Wow so much in so few words. Beautiful
Aww, Benny. What a good boy. I really felt this.
