Now, she lay at rest,8964 copyright protection140PENANAZSUCzg9ubb 維尼
Six feet below a marble slab,8964 copyright protection140PENANA9Jt0LX5gFl 維尼

He never knew this.8964 copyright protection140PENANAUMkwjoRDVn 維尼
That such a grisly fate had befallen her.8964 copyright protection140PENANAxtuyI7Pwy6 維尼
To some, she was a hero.8964 copyright protection140PENANALJyx2oONGE 維尼
To others, she was just another body,8964 copyright protection140PENANATmcRytrnsk 維尼
In just another uniform—8964 copyright protection140PENANAMfbLim646r 維尼
But, to the Hound;8964 copyright protection140PENANA272k4UaiOn 維尼
Who had watched her,8964 copyright protection140PENANAasRS2aDsBh 維尼
As she grew from childhood;8964 copyright protection140PENANAu4hxw0Awgt 維尼
She was a girl,8964 copyright protection140PENANAPHD6m8hMnS 維尼

No, he went room to room,8964 copyright protection140PENANAtZBTR5y4kx 維尼
Sniffing each person,8964 copyright protection140PENANADb6yqDQI8T 維尼
Protecting his flock,8964 copyright protection140PENANAmNaFwqH0Ge 維尼

Not understanding her duties,8964 copyright protection140PENANAYhtGJs8wyN 維尼
Nor why she must leave.8964 copyright protection140PENANAMmP4JPQUDT 維尼
All he knew was that his human,8964 copyright protection140PENANArRWiR5uGM3 維尼
Who he’d watched grow from a pup—8964 copyright protection140PENANAZWeyekKUXG 維尼
And who had raised him from a pup—8964 copyright protection140PENANA5pjm2Y5g25 維尼
Was gone.8964 copyright protection140PENANAiw2WkMjnea 維尼
144Please respect copyright.PENANArqQIqSrLQq
8964 copyright protection140PENANAAhG6T091h3 維尼
Gone, as she’d been before.8964 copyright protection140PENANA8EFoX7ajsQ 維尼
So, as he had done before,8964 copyright protection140PENANAb76epKBKzm 維尼
The Shepherd’s Hound sniffed the humans,8964 copyright protection140PENANA7VBMOmbIzG 維尼
Going room to room,8964 copyright protection140PENANAfT7d5vDFqW 維尼
And slept by the door,8964 copyright protection140PENANATraUYOTcVU 維尼
Guarding his two-legged flock.8964 copyright protection140PENANAbWSazwZzgB 維尼

‘Till, one cold, winter day,8964 copyright protection140PENANAx5R3X3gfL0 維尼
Two strangers came.8964 copyright protection140PENANAuuOhFf7WkT 維尼
They were dressed in that same crisp, black fur,8964 copyright protection140PENANAqT2JQ4213D 維尼
That the Hound’s human once wore—8964 copyright protection140PENANALtzWvTSCAE 維尼
Military uniforms, though the Hound did not realize it.8964 copyright protection140PENANALvqUfLbA8L 維尼
144Please respect copyright.PENANA3BP1yZ0M79
8964 copyright protection140PENANAOdKWgBFJDC 維尼
They spoke stiff, cold words.8964 copyright protection140PENANAgn6d3sWrxO 維尼
Words filled with dread and pain.8964 copyright protection140PENANAGcEvXgmqiZ 維尼
Words prompting his Person’s Parents,8964 copyright protection140PENANAopRoEay8lh 維尼
Sobbing, to cry out with grief.8964 copyright protection140PENANAayjXM3gVT6 維尼
The sound of their howling cut through the air between them,8964 copyright protection140PENANAkC5Jnhghfa 維尼
As would a tooth or claw through flesh.8964 copyright protection140PENANADzXOBLsYiy 維尼
144Please respect copyright.PENANAVajRFrsBKb
8964 copyright protection140PENANAnjrQe8wMr6 維尼
Knowing not the meaning of those words,8964 copyright protection140PENANA3jksD5C6Ae 維尼
The Shepherd’s Hound snarled and growled—8964 copyright protection140PENANArnwzmLQRwP 維尼
Mistaking the message for a threat,8964 copyright protection140PENANAqs4PEP2nPQ 維尼
And hoping to scare away these intruders.8964 copyright protection140PENANACSmiEmZ65g 維尼
Intruders perceived by the hound as two-legged wolves,8964 copyright protection140PENANAeLpEhNKFF5 維尼
Who dared threaten his flock.8964 copyright protection140PENANAUxPBxUppFz 維尼
The girl’s father, his girl’s father, snarled an order,8964 copyright protection140PENANAfXT8De0Dok 維尼
An order which the Sheapards Hound obeyed,8964 copyright protection140PENANAIqEnPvauOs 維尼
Falling into a reluctant silence.8964 copyright protection140PENANAXLmiLTKGN3 維尼
Why he was silenced, the Shepherd’s Hound did not know.8964 copyright protection140PENANAQeB6WbAxnK 維尼
Yet, the Shepherd’s Hound dutifully obeyed.8964 copyright protection140PENANAB8nX84r9RB 維尼
144Please respect copyright.PENANAtrCZXoFd3s
8964 copyright protection140PENANAUQS3pEEvlj 維尼
The Shepherd’s Hound was not allowed to see her,8964 copyright protection140PENANA7jXSb9Br04 維尼
That final, solemn time—8964 copyright protection140PENANAEmPzycSepS 維尼
As the rifle’s salute rang out,8964 copyright protection140PENANAJTZgvcKtvn 維尼
And her nation’s flag,8964 copyright protection140PENANAODrNRys4Ug 維尼
Draped over her remains,8964 copyright protection140PENANAd4tqQynMx1 維尼
Was folded above her.8964 copyright protection140PENANA0Q54PWFSZt 維尼
He was not there,8964 copyright protection140PENANAnaUD8yd0sG 維尼
As what remained of his person,8964 copyright protection140PENANABRDSVGyJt6 維尼
His soldier,8964 copyright protection140PENANA0KTtvpaw4L 維尼
His little girl—8964 copyright protection140PENANAhK060KmRUX 維尼
Now encased in ornate wood—8964 copyright protection140PENANAwg096UeXp8 維尼
Was lowered into hollowed ground.8964 copyright protection140PENANAdD1imzWLqS 維尼
144Please respect copyright.PENANAnZSBvyCVvW
8964 copyright protection140PENANAZ3AinIeG5g 維尼
The Shepherd’s Hound is not aware,8964 copyright protection140PENANAGXgpMvoAAf 維尼
That his soldier will never march home,8964 copyright protection140PENANAIYf8iBI7gj 維尼
Or that there was a war in the desert—8964 copyright protection140PENANAInGJrh62Aj 維尼
Only that the Hound has not seen her person in so, very long.8964 copyright protection140PENANACt6h4Zuh2v 維尼
144Please respect copyright.PENANAWxvEsCAdsT
8964 copyright protection140PENANA13vVv81ljb 維尼
So, the Shepherd’s Hound waits,8964 copyright protection140PENANA7HYn8Va2pT 維尼
Sitting by the door,8964 copyright protection140PENANAdihPNt0fDT 維尼
And guarding what is left of his two-legged flock.8964 copyright protection140PENANACiiFKBRBDK 維尼
He awaits, ever so dutifully, his human’s return,8964 copyright protection140PENANAAJX6KTobuM 維尼
As she is not home,8964 copyright protection140PENANAb2sSWKRxnc 維尼
And he had the watch.144Please respect copyright.PENANAIv7ciIK6LX
