On 2nd September I wrote about the sad death of my guide dog Trigger, which can be found here: https://kmorrispoet.com/2020/09/02/trigger/
I have now recorded my poem ‘Dog Bed’, which was written in memory of Trigger.
DOG BED
The mark
Of your teeth is still there,
On your old dog bed.
I walk in the park,
Where
The dead
Leaves lie.
Shadows on the grass
Mistook for an old friend.
All things pass,
However much we pretend
Otherwise. You closed your eyes,
And left your mark
Upon my heart.
Below are some photographs:
Me remembering Trigger 
Trigger relaxing on the ground 
Me petting Trigger 
My friend Trigger and me at the Park 
Me talking about Trigger
Myself and Trigger in the Woods 
A Sitting Long-nosed Bear or Wolf Sculpture 
Enjoying a nice drink outside 
Enjoying the woods together 
A close up of Trigger!
