A lazy afternoon,an old dog and years of memories
As my old dog and I sat on the bank looking out at the clear water on a lazy afternoon, we shared memories of years past.
We remember those first years with laughter! I tell him of his antics and he looks at me with his head cocked as if to say boy were those the days!
We both look out over the water, remembering our own verison of them.we move on to his adult years and talk about how he settled in and became my steadfast friend.
He was my guardian while i slept! My protector in the daylight hours! My confidant when I needed to talk! My laughter on the darkest of days! He was my best friend!He looked up at me with a look of pride as if to say,"it was a pleasure my friend!"
We sit there in silence mulling over our past memories! We turn to the present both in our older years looking out over the water on a lazy afternoon enjoying the sun on our faces, watching the grass grow and with past memories.
The years have been kind to us both and should one of us have to leave.We know the other will come to this spot on a lazy afternoon.Looking out over the water thinking of an old dog,me and past memories.
