Man's Best Friend

He sits up, he begs for you 
   Rolls over, does tricks too
Dare you spurn his advances
   He'll whimper, look askance at you

When he sees you coming down the trail
   He barks excitedly, wags his tail
Extend him your arms
   He jumps up and licks you, inflicts no harm

When your partner just 'can't comprehend'
   ~ Rediscover why a dog's man's best friend
