A dog named Bo

It's no secret that I love animals. I had to put my absolute best friend down six years ago this November. Probably in the top three, if not the top, of the hardest things I've ever done in my almost 28 years of life. There's not a day that goes by that I don't miss her. It's silly, but I've often held Monk up to my shadowbox I had made for Satin--has her prized penguin, sans stuffing because she took it all out, along with two pictures I took of her and draped over it is her leash--and told Monk about her.

Was going through some online videos tonight and came across this one. Halfway through, I started crying. Crying because I miss her, but also crying because of how happy she made me. I just hope all of you enjoy this poem
