for her deceased father
the family dog, run over.

woken early
by the dog crying
paws on the bed
by the time I've showered
she's asleep again

afraid
to phone the doctor
blood tests
terrified
I'm becoming a hostage
to old age
no news is good news

Poor Trickster. :(
Did you phone them back? (I'm always afraid, too.)
Lovely haiku.
No, I haven't yet. I'm such a scaredy-cat.
