I had a dream about you For the very first time. And it was you— So clear, So certain, Not a second of doubt. Your beautiful face, So gentle and warm, Your floppy ears, That golden fur I used to bury my hands in. Maybe it’s because I looked at your picture Before I went to sleep. But still— I got to see you. Even though You never woke, You were there. Home. With us. Where you always belong.
