Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is the death of a pet.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com

A name poem for a deceased pet ferret named Jasmine:
Jasmine was my best, most loyal friend,
A lover to the bone, all hot affection.
Squirming out the moment I came near,
Making for my nose or inner ear,
In ecstasy she'd lick away dejection,
Nuzzling with neither strategy nor end.
Even death has made her no less dear.
