There's no love like a dog's love
There's no heart that beats
Quite as true
There's no love
Like a dogs love
He keeps depending on you.

Is there any other creature
That can greet you time after time
Upon your return
Like you've been gone
A thousand years?

Who else can cheer you so
When your sad and blue
By looking in your eyes
Saying without words
It's no time to cry,
Offering up his favorite toy
Begging you to play
He just won't go away
Until you brighten up his day
Funny how this ploy
Always bring you joy.

There's no love like a dog's love
There's no heart that beats
Quite as true
There's no love like dog's love
When he wags his tail
You will always know..
That you've found a friend
That's true!

Ah, this is so true and I love the way you express it and the way this poem flows.
Great job as usual. Love, Ellie

Summers haunting melody
that awakens
the butterflies,
calling them to join
the dance
in their silent song
of praise to God.

I have a 14-year old Tibetan Terrier who can't see or hear much, but he is still sturdy and interested in life.  Your poem reminds me why I have him. And what will I do without him?  Yes, I know, get another one--waiting in the wings!

A wonderful poem and very true though they do have terrible breath and very weird hygenine habits.

Septsong, I love this!!!! Kinda made me sad because we lost our "special" dog, just can't find one to replace her. Your poem, beautifully crafted in words and thoughts.

Dogs always carry the name "MansBestfriend"
and this poem expresses it deeper! I loved it very much
