Do you really understand me
when I talk to you
As you look into my eyes
it seems as though you do

Seeming to sense my moods
happiness, sadness, or joy I feel
Ready to lend a listening ear
I know your love is real

I talk to you a lot
every single day
Even when I get busy
close by my side you stay

If I have to go somewhere
and you can't go along
Sometimes you make me feel as if
I've done something wrong

I also know always
protection to me you'll give
Listening and watching for
anything different where we live

You certainly have proven well
as only you, little Scooter, can do
That "Dog is man's best friend"
now, this lady believes it's true

~My Little Scooter~

Dear Ethel, this is a wonderful tribute to your Scooter! There is no doubt about the fact that he understands you. I have this relationship with my cat and she too has her ways to dialogue and to make me feel her love .... and I know dogs are even more explicit in this.
So tender!
Love to you and to Scooter!

Thank you, Margherita. I believe that animals understand more than some people give them credit for. Don't you?

Yes dear Ethel, I totally agree with you! Animals have a very special psychic sensitivity and they are a wonderful gift for us!
Hugs again, beautiful soul!

Ethel,

You words and Scooter put a smile back on my face.  Yah for you.  Yes, I think Scooter knows how you feel.  Hey, maybe I should dump this man I am seeing and get a dog! LOL Seems a pup may be better in tune with my feelings!  

Love this one!

That dog is just about the cutest thing I've ever seen. Haha, I thought you were talking about a person, interesting turn of events

I said I'm going to buy a gun and start a war,
If you can tell me something worth fighting for

Hi Ethel, I loved this and I certainly didn't expect this to be about your lovable doggie, Scooter.

Thanks for the picture and the fun poem. Dogs certainly understand our moods, our stresses and our ups and downs. My Bernadette always knows when I'm not feeling well and never leaves my side.

Huggles, Marti

(smiles) Oh Ethel, this brought a tear to my eye because when I was a little boy, no people like me were my friends and my only friends were Mother Nature and her creations, and I had a kitty named Suky who always seemed to hop on my lap when I felt sad and licked me. (wipes tears) I truly feel animals can really feel how we feel and I love all of Her creations with all my heart, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
