I heard this — a man’s dog died.
He loved it deeply.
Love between humans has grown difficult,
so sometimes we must find other paths.

He was a thoughtful man.
He decided his dog deserved the honor of a human funeral.

He told the priest,
“My dog has died. I wish to give it the honor of a human burial.”
