Dear furry friend

Dear furry friend,

 


As timeflakes fall on your muzzle,

and as your paws leave prints on the crystalline snow

I wonder, I wonder...

 


Is winter coming for you ?

 


My old friend, can you smell the time passing ?


Can you smell time like you smell freshly baked doughnuts?

 


Loyal companion, please tell me I won't have to say goodbye too soon.


Please tell me you will walk once again by my side in this city.


This city sprinkled with powdered sugar.

 


My dear dog...
