A Canine Gift

Held once in hand
Canine gift so free
Offering up its innocence
Resting upon my knee

Thought did not occur
When career did take
My every waking hour
Unhappy did it make

Within its twisted fate
This opportunity did rise
Finding all my love
For this puppy prize

Now life is calmer
Memories we now create
A million timeline photographs
My little canine mate
