In today’s busy world, we don’t stop to see what we truly miss. What we truly need could be just down the corner, or in your home, but the laughs and love are the same.
He’s spotted brown, like something that’s fallen into a factory
His beautiful tail the iridescent color of life
Why, the average person would laugh at such a thing
So cute, wagging its tail as it looks into your eyes, and you look back.
It’s mystifying beyond imaginable as you look into the luminously innocent eyes that only wanted one thing
You knew it wasn’t a treat; you’d already put it in his bowl.
You knew it wasn’t a walk; you’d already taken him out twice that day.
Both he and you knew what he truly wanted.
Giving in with a sigh, you lower yourself with a smile and he immediately jumps up, trying to lick your face.
It was nothing but puppy love that he wanted to give you; being such a cute little thing and so dependent
That you gave in to his needs and deepest desire:
To be the four legged animal that was always by your side
To be the canine that was always on the watch yet respectful enough to leave when asked
To be something unique, to be something not even the most precious gem could replace
But most of all
To be man’s best friend.
