A Poem To My Foster Dog
By: Diane Morgan
I am the bridge,
Between what was and what can be.
I am the pathway to a new life.
I am made of mush,
Because I melted when I saw you,
Matted, and uncertain,
Lonely, afaid to love.
For one little time you are mine.
I will feed you with my own hand.
I will love you with my whole heart.
I will make you whole.
I am made of steel.
Because when the time comes,
When you are well, and sleek,
when your eyes shine,
And your tail wags with joy
Then comes the hard part.
I will let you go-not without a tear.
But without regret.
For you are safe forever–
A new dog needs me now.
Foster Sheltie, Maxwell (2026)
