Magnanimity Manifested

Midst his playfulness, I could find gracefulness; Midst pugnacity, Great amicability; Bravery wrapped in fear, Foolishness enveloped cheer; He chased rats and cats, And humans he thought burglars; His irritability outwitted sociability, Aggressiveness withstood passivity; Seeming treachery, Couldn’t hide his loyalty; It’s hence when he died for me, To protect me from an accident to be; Words like defender or Savior, I found, could never define his behavior... 11 January 2022
