Meriwether:  April 27, 2002  -  August 29, 2006

 

 

Elegant and graceful

He was agile and swift

His poetry of movement

Could be seen as a gift

 

He would interpret commands

Such as "Stop", "Wait", and "Stay"

As a mere invitation

To keep going away

 

"Just try to catch me"

Was his favorite game

His twists, turns, and dodges

Were never the same

 

He thought it was smart

To fly through the air

I could not catch him . . .

But a Suburban was there

 

This is how Meriwether

Chose to meet his end

Hoosier has lost his Daddy

And I have lost a friend
