4:45pm
I had about 20 minutes of free time before my meeting, so I wrote something. I hope you enjoy it. I know... I'm crazy about my dog.
A Toast To My Dog
Tonight,
I raise my glass and toast to you
and,
cleaning:
muddy pawprints on the bedspread,
doghair tumbleweeds two days after sweeping,
stinking eye-goobers,
scummy water bowls,
gritty couch covers
spending:
way too much so you,
could have a chip to bring you home if you're ever lost,
can eat the very best dog food,
can have greasy pig ears every Friday (ok, thank Brian for that),
are healthy and don't get sick,
don't get fleas or ticks or heartworms,
can have new toys to play with
waking:
at 6am when it's,
snowing,
raining,
sleeting,
freezing,
humid,
baking.
Because:
You are the most loyal creature I've ever met,
You would do it all ten times over if
you were me and I were you,
I love you,
You are a good dog.
Here's to Sofie and good dogs everywhere.
