How Many Legs Does a Friend Need
How many legs does a best friend need?
The answer to the question is difficult for me,
Humans have two, no one has three!
Animals have four some insects have eight,
Tying your shoes surely would then make you late!
On reflection I think the best number for sure
Is the ones on my dog, numbering four.
I conclude this because he is honest and true
He will always love me and be friendly to you
Always ready to play or just sit by my side
And out in the car he’ll happily ride
I don’t really care for reptiles and snakes
I’ll stick with my dog, my best friend he makes.
So I am now ready to answer the question above
No need for a pause to think who I love
My best friend who is loyal and true
Sits by my side, as dogs often do
Always keen to please, protect and love
On his four legs he stands miles above…
