Basset Hound

Even though you were 15 years old

to me you were still like a puppy.

Even yesterday you greeted me on my return from work

wagging your tail and "speaking" that language of bassets I love.

Your brother and sister bassets are upset and

wonder when you are coming home.

I haven't the heart to tell them

your body is buried on our land in Connecticut now.

You are with MacBeth your basset hound sibling

who died three years ago.

Charlie Becky Elliott and I will miss you forever.

Every time we camp in Connecticut

we will visit your grave and remember

what a wonderful dog you were.
