Pets

You may be a dog,
But to me you’re more.
You’re the light in my fog.
You put up with our war,

“Its just a dog,”
Are the words from someone
Who has never seen fog
And whose wars have not begun.

Through thick and through thin,
You’ve stayed by my side.
Even when I can’t win,
Even when hope has died,

You’re the angel I wished for,
You’re the best friend I’ve had.
You’re all I wanted and more,
And I love you like mad,

I can’t thank you enough
For the things that you do.
When times are tough,
I’m so glad I have you.
