1. Poem about a loyal dog
Swim on, Golden, come back to me
Don't go far, your body is so small
The waves are big, the sea out there is so salty
You keep swimming away, how can I hold back...
Swim on, Golden, can you hear?
Your affection ripples, stirring my heart
The vast ocean, your petite body
As you turn towards the boat, how can I stay away...
Swim on, Golden, return home
I must leave now as my duty is done
And I know last night you couldn't sleep
Licking my hand, fearing I'll leave
Don't do that anymore, Golden, I love you too much
I cherish the nights we stand watch together
Every storm, you remain unchanged
Vigilant against the waiting pirates
Go home now, stop swimming, I implore
I apologize, my duty calls
And I know that's not enough yet
But I must reach the shore, others will take over.
Hey there, off you go,
No more swimming,
Eyes stinging...
=> This is a poem by a military officer about a dog on the Spratly Islands, depicting the affection of these dogs towards humans.
2. Best Five-Word Dog Poem
Poem number 1:
Coming home from school
You dash out to meet me
First, you wag your tail
Then you shake your head
Sniffle, twitching your nose
Then you hop on your hind legs
Front paws reaching, you catch
You hold my hand tightly
So eager, you lead me inside
No matter where I go
I always miss you deeply
But today, I suddenly see
The gate so wide open!
Without your shadow to be seen
Lying, waiting for me at the door
Hearing no barks from you
Like every other noon
Not seeing you to welcome me
Your golden tail wagging
Your black nose sniffing
You don't hold my hand
My hand feels sad!
Why don't you come back, dog?
Hearing the American bombs explode
Where did you run off to?
I've been waiting for you so long
Your meal is at the door
Why don't you come back, dog?
I miss you so much
Golden, oh Golden!
=> Author Trần Đăng Khoa expresses his longing for the loyal pet - the dog, in these verses. Surely, reading this poem about dogs will evoke emotions and memories of your own dog.
Poem number 2:
After a long time visiting a friend
Arriving at the alley, dogs pour out
Big and chubby ones
Barking like a chorus
Seeing the dogs recognize the owner's house
Doing quite well for themselves.
Well, that's enough
They have to go inside anyway.

3. Poem describing the stone dog
He returns to the hill village
The stone dog greets him at the gate
In the days of forefathers, wealth was scarce
Yet a stone dog is cherished within
For to live, to become human, one must guard against cunning spirits in the depths of sleep.
The gravel lane, the sturdy fence, how many times he has returned
The stone dog remains seated in its old spot
Eyes neither kind nor fierce
No barking, no wagging tail of joy.
Its weathered skin creased with life
A stone mouth still clamps shut
Eyes of stone endure fog, collected rain
Awake all day and night, observing spirits, acquaintances, strangers, and the dogs with a shared lifetime.
The dogs that know to bare their teeth, to wag their tails, and to bark at the old man.
'- O HUMAN, rejoice for him,
But first, rejoice for me'.
As if those words emanated from within the stone.
'- Today another dog has flown into space, to planet Mars.
Why are you silent?
Or have you not read the news?
I have sat here perhaps a thousand nights without a chance to speak.
Even though dogs are foolish creatures, though they know how to bark, they have never once boasted about their own kind'
'You know, even going to the moon, to Mars, even staying up all night, we are ready to go ahead, and sit and wait
But today I only ask to speak once:
If you have kept your body intact, then you can also keep your soul complete,
why do you still need us?'
Whenever demons abound,
The later the night, the more cunning and evil spirits there are,
But the burden of stone upon us is heavy enough
Let me transform my own destiny.
Even the volcano atop the moon's arch trembles before the silent stone life'
He kisses the stone eyes,
He understands life
The stone dog still sits,
But this time, upon reunion
He feels as if flying, as if transcending
And understands more
I must be both my body and my soul.
4. Humorous poem about a dog
Oh, dear Dog, Golden
You follow my steps to school
First, you sniffle, seeking the scent
Fish sauce, shrimp, lime, chili, all for you, Golden!
I pity the dog's love, laughter, and tears
Tail wagging, wrapping around human legs, please forgive:
Chasing cats, guarding against thieves, watching the house
So much effort, yet one day...
Let me change my destiny for you
Who knows, in the future you might become an official?
Humans and animals, such a cycle
Reincarnation dares to shed unjust shackles?
Even though ripe mangoes taste delicious
People, dogs, friends
Fearful, alone, warning:
In the next life, don't foolishly become human, Golden!
Oh Golden, just be Golden
Loyal to the master, steadfast in loyalty...?
Dog, all things must come to an end
Summoning the departed soul back to the canine realm...
5. Six-eight poem about the dog
Suddenly hearing the dog bark woof woof
Abruptly, oh, it's been so long.
Perhaps it's you, my friend,
More than three years without sitting together.
Dog meat isn't that expensive,
Vodka deepens the stories even more.
Or perhaps someone's on a date,
Seeing me, you pretend to row and look away.
