In the Eyes of a Dog

Peace in the Eyes of a Dog
by Kristen Jackson




In the eyes of a dog, 

you can be you, and I can be me.

In the eyes of a dog, 

everyone is equal and free.

In the eyes of a dog, 

colors are all the same.

In the eyes of a dog, 

there is never cause for blame.

In the eyes of a dog, 

no worries, fights, or jeers.

In the eyes of a dog, 

you cherish all your years.

In the eyes of a dog,  

just a touch is a delight.

In the eyes of a dog, 

the future’s always bright.

In the eyes of a dog, 

you help me and I’ll help you.

In the eyes of a dog, 

Sometimes help for nothing too.

In the eyes of a dog, 

we talk and then shake hands.

In the eyes of a dog, 

We share all the lands.

In the eyes of a dog, 

We are best friends, you and me.

In the eyes of a dog,

if only everyone could see,

Through the eyes of a dog…
