Monroe the Hero

Monroe's brown eyes never left the swings as high as the kids went as high as they swang He swam and dove like a duck, like a boy his brown fur glistening as he shook in the sun grinning slopping he ate peanut butter sandwhiches watched 1000 movies sat with sick children even played Barbies oh he was a saint just some love and dog food and clean water sometimes a cookie put me in the car take me on vacation sit me on the porch I'm yours forever. * dedicated to all of us in dog love, and to a family hero
