They say you are mans' best friend
well, if that's true, our love shall never end
as, we've shared an abundance of memories
like the time you and I,
drank a whole bottle of hennessey.
I love to caress your fur
because, it feels soft as feathers
I've had ones like you before
but, none can measure.
Man, if only you can speak
cause, all you do, is stare at me
and when I tell you I love you,
your response is "woof, woof"
as if you're telling me, "I love you too".
Everyday I come home from work,
you're always happy to see me,
nearly ripping off my shirt
and in a few minutes, you're ready to go outside
to play with your friends or dig in the dirt.
We've had so much fun playing hide and seek,
that my youthfulness always gets the best of me,
to the point that, I lose track of the time.
I'm so glad that you're mine
that I wouldn't trade you in,
for a million gold mines
or a luxurious home in alphines
cause you're my sunshine
as you've bought,
a million smiles to my face
everytime our hearts and souls embrace.
Once again, I find myself telling you these things,
contemplating and wishing, that you would reply
but all I get, is you staring at me,
with those big, black, and beautiful eyes
as, I suddenly began to cry,
cause I got an indescribable feeling inside,
that you and I, shared a previous life
as, celestial beings in the sky
and that, you understand
the present time and place
as, I joyfully hugged you
while, you licked me on my face.


Nathan

What a loving dedication to your faithful companion. They give love so unconditionally. I wish he could read your poem, cause I think he'd be very touched, but than again you could end up with a really sloppy face after he read it cause he would have to really give you lots of affection than. Great poem I really enjoyed reading it tonight

At least your best friend responds somewhat verbally  Mine just looks at me, wagging his tail...as if to say, 'I know you love me, now feed me, already!'.  They are precious, aren't they.  And certainly their love is unconditional.  Great write, Nathan.
