A Pair of 6S Acrostic Poems—Six Down, Six Across: Our Dog and Sad Day
by Fred Meyer

Six sentences, six words per sentence, and an acrostic.

Our Dog

Our first family pet, P.D. Meyer.
Unmatched faithfulness, amazing jumper, always fun.
Real friend, family member, good boy.

Devotion to Kara, lover of bones.
Old age took its ruthless toll.
God will reunite us one day.

Sad Day

Sick, worn-out, in pain, stopped eating.
A very sorrowful time for us.
Death crept in for the kill.

Doctor said, "Fred, Kara, it's time."
Asleep, it looks like you're asleep.
You will never be forgotten, P.D.

P.D. and Kara, my wife (the day before we had P.D. put to sleep)

[John Wiswell]

The second one was particularly sweet, Fred. Not bittersweet like painful subject matter handled with grace normally is, but sweet with pain and somber feelings instead.

And your dog looks adorable.

[Fred Meyer]

Yes, it is the same pain as losing a loved one.

[ROBERTA]

Fred, we are the biggest dog lovers in the world I think, I lost three giants in three weeks last November, I know the pain.

[Fred Meyer]

Thank you, sir. We miss the little guy. It is amazing how attached humans can get to pets.
