Farewell to a Greatheart by Janine M. Donoho

What we carry forward:

A fading rage at what invaded his rocket-scientist’s brain;

The thump of his expressive tail—

His blissful lupine smile, eloquent look and

Dazzling flow across jagged landscapes;

Silky heat beneath the hand—

Raw tenderness where the heart resides.
