Backdrop to my life,
Ever present, standing strong,
My sweet mountain home.

Speak
She walked through the noisy isles of the shelter slowly, weaving her way through the Saturday crowd as non-invasively as possible while still trying to peruse all of the dogs on display. Wherever possible, she knelt down to offer pats, smiling and cooing at the eager occupants wagging their tails. Heartbreak leaked through her smile, meeting the eyes of every dog as though to say, I'd take you all with me if I could.

Not my home but enamored by the beautiful Canadian Rockies! Your poem resonates.
Wow the “backdrop to my life” line… I love that; wonderful job!
Very pretty!
