I strolled along the street one day, A young guy with a dog said "hey,
"Missus can you help me, please",
Looked so gaunt,
Leaned in his craggy doorway,
While waiting for some luck to fall his way,
A fallen angel walked his way...smiled wryly, "say I say, what can i do for you this day?"
"scoop me up and take me home, I so desire to see your throne".
"Had enough of mortal life, lost my children, lost my wife"
I have nothing left at all,  I have a dog but, have no ball.
He is my one and only friend...I know on him I can depend.
The fallen angel picked him up, piercing his heart with a dagger of ice,
He bled inside ,his heart was drained , so only his poor dog remained.
His one and only  wish he  gained,
The dog was taken to my heart and still today, we'll never part.
I was that fallen angel, that took his heart, that day!
Never ever punished because of my way!
He got his desire that fate filled day,
His wish was granted and his good dog had it's day!!
Obviously, this is a piece of pure fantasy, that came to me after reading Chris's  poem, which is pure excellence as usual.
