When I was wro...

Tribute to a Best Friend
By Unknown Author Sunlight streams through window pane onto a spot on the floor… then I remember, it’s where you used to lie, but now you are no more.

You stumbled when you learned to walk, It was hard to steer four legs; You learned to sit, and stay, and come, And, of course, you learned to beg.
