If I may belabor the obvious, 
                  both have been getting along 
                      swimmingly for millennia. 
                   The affinity between the two
              knows no international boundaries. 
                          Their chemistry is
                 so beautifully touching to see. 
              They couldn't be more agreeable.

  "They really are man's best friend, aren't they?"
       I once asked a neighbor walking his dog.
"Yes, absolutely! You should get one," he replied. 

Their bond couldn't be more special and enviable. 
               It made me wish I had a dog! 
         Can you imagine such a relationship 
                     between two people? 
                    Unfailingly coexisting 
                      in perfect harmony.

               There's no trace of hostility 
                        or disagreement. 
            There's always a happy reunion 
                         after time apart, 
                      no matter how long.

                   Why can't two people
                  get along just as well?
