This time of year
On cold, lonely nights,
I sometimes watch a
Cheesy, unrealistic tale
About finding love amidst
Gently falling snowflakes
With twinkling lights and
Dark December skies
As a backdrop.
This year,
I watched a story unfold,
With a foreboding winter backdrop,
Ebbing daylight, icy wind, dark clouds,
A tiny pup, looking like a winter day,
Wormed his way into our hearts
Into our lives.
"Snowy" will never
Walk, eat, sleep, play,
Or, be lonely
As he is NOW part of a family
Who don't need to watch cheesy
Unrealistic movies about finding love.

Better than a H@llmark Movie!
This makes my heart so full! I adore the photo, and the poem is just heartwarming. Do you read any of Tom Ryan's books? Finding Atticus and Will's Red Coat are two. He also has a Substack, too. You may find his travels with his rescue dogs quite inspiring - - they are Samwise and Emily. He's just getting ready to take them on another adventure, and he is a firm believer in rescuing. I love your story. Big congratulations on Snowy.
Ah, such a sweet, sweet "Snowy" and a perfect name for this new creature in your lives: "A tiny pup, looking like a winter day" Beautiful post! And yes, so much better than a movie.
