Ode to our canine friends
Wondrous Beast
by kiwisteveh
O, wondrous beast of motley shapes, Of grinning mouth and lolling tongue, Your epic journeys, jaunts and japes Form tales we've told and songs we've sung. Your loyal heart and willing frame Attract the title, 'Man's Best Friend'; You judge us not, you join our game, Our wounds you lick, our hearts you mend. 'Cross frozen wastes you haul our sleds You toil long hours in fields and farms; You guard our houses, warm our beds And serve as useful fire alarms. When glowing eyes grow dim and fade, No more you bound along the ridge, Deep sorrow's by the thought allayed, We'll meet once more at Rainbow Bridge. |
