    Poem Commentary

    I lost my best friend, Riley, Nov. 19, 2009. This poem is actualy based on a dream I had where we meet in the snow by a creek. It was so profound and felt so real that I had to write about it. I believe in Angels, and truly believe He is mine. ALWAYS. Love You Buddy

    Come Now Boy, Lets Go Home

    Come Now Boy, Lets Go Home: Drew Lancaster


    I found you in my dream

    Since He took you from my life

    You were cold and alone

    I cried,"there there boy, its gonna be alright"

    "Daddy's here now, I found you this night"

    I hugged that precious neck like death

    Wiped the frost from his cheeks

    Cooler cold I'll never forget

    Kneeling in the snow by the creek

    The embrace once lost, feeling forever real

    Holding him like mold holds old

    Never again will God or fate steal


    I found you in my dream

    To say I love you and never goodbye

    You knew this and I proved it

    Love is revealed in the eyes

    When I said,"Lets Go Home"

    His paws pasted hasty prints

    As if he waited so long

    Being so happy now this is it

    Together again and never again

    Shall Daddy leave you all alone

    Your the light in my eyes, the pie in my sky

    Come now boy, Lets Go Home

    Bonding with an animal that is destined to die first is the masochistic pull in man's heart. Unlike women, dogs seldom disappoint. But then again, they're not our equals, they're our angels.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
