You showed up on my doorstep then took over my life

And without trying wrapped your paws around my heart

Entrusting me with the innocence reflected in your eyes

I felt unending joy when you greeted me with those eyes

Each wag of your crazy tail gave energy to my life

While sloppy kisses on my face refreshed a jaded heart

All I have is your image engraved upon my heart

The vision of you running free reflected in my eyes

Where angel wings and endless days constitute your life.

A dog's life; too few years for such a faithful heart, such trusting eyes
