Man's Best Friend

he's so happy to see you
so anxious to greet you
jumping up and down
tongue lolling all around
tail wagging back and forth 
going from side to side
running across a floor to fast to stop 
and then he slides
your dog, your  pet
a companion for life
unconditional love and acceptance
more loyal than a husband or a wife
a buddy who will adore you 
until the very end
your dog, your pet 
man's best friend
