One Little Body


A soft fawn head
against my leg

A gentle paw
to tap my hand

The softest fur
beneath my hand

A graceful tail
greeting me home

A cold wet nose
in early morn

A warm little tongue
that licks my foot

And two golden eyes
to see my heart

All in one perfect body
that I call my dog

  1. Arghhh very sweet. I'd like to write something similar about my cockatoo but I'm not sure I could be so nice about someone who has bitten through most of my dining table ;0)
