    Poem Commentary

    To Amber, my half German Shepherd and Wolf mix, who has since passed away.

    Amber

    Amber was a dog of mine
    Who is now long gone
    And when God took her from me
    I thought maybe I'd done something wrong

    Part Wolf and German Shepherd
    And reddish tan in color
    Always so loving and that's
    What I loved the most about her

    She had a different personality
    Than all the rest
    But even still that's why
    I loved her best

    I don't think I will
    Ever find another dog like her
    She was acquired quite by accident
    And that is for sure

    It's hard to let go
    When you love them so much
    And after they're gone
    You especially miss their touch

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
