Fondest Memory

"Star Bright, Star Light, First star I see tonight. I wish I may I wish I might...." Author unknown. I wished for a cat and only that. I was five years old. I remember being told, "Cats kill birds" So saddened by these words, A dog was on my mind. Dogs are always kind. My birthday soon came around. We went to the pound. So many dogs were tall. and a lot were small. Some were white. Even black as night. Others were dark. Quiet or a big bark. There you are ! My shining star. Where have you been? The biggest dog ever seen. Today I am six. We will name you Brix. I will never be mean I'll always keep you clean. My job to feed you, You will be happy too. I will never be sad. Best dog I could've had.
