Written from a guide dog’s point of view…

I guide with precision,

Through streets and alleys, my mission.

Blind but not lost, I lead the way,

Granting independence every day.

Playing fetch, a joyful task,

Bringing smiles, no need to ask.

A juicy bone, a tasty treat,

Dog food and treats, all so sweet.

Loyal and loving, I’m always near,

A companion to hold dear.

Friendship forged through trust and care,

Together we make a perfect pair.

Our challenge this week was to write a poem from the point of view of an object, so I chose my dog. I don’t have him any longer, but if I did, this is what he’d say in his poem!

    What kind of dog did you have? Do you think you will ever have another? My dog is my service dog and I dread the day I no longer have him.
