Your post is full of goodness today. I love your dog poem and Rosie is adorable. I can imagine how much she loves to be at the beach. I am wondering if you would like to offer your dog poem with the pic of Rosie for my Embraceable Summer Gallery. It would be a great image poem.

It is special, as is that prescient poem about Rosie. I watch a couple with their dog every morning, in a gallop for it fetch, so love the "my best-ever fetch-er." and then your red poem is special, too.
