Man's Bestest Friend

Golden Retrievers are the bestest friends
They'll love you no matter what
Even if you've just had the worst day ever
These charmers your heart will touch

Their wagging tails are a good indication
You're their favourite supplier of love
They're also aware you're a supplier of food
There's no higher friendship above

They're the bestest friend a man can have
They trust you to the nth degree
Treat them kindly, they're almost like people
Except when they need to pee

Then they cross their eyes and cross their legs
And dance back and forth, to and fro
But they never complain, just motor along
Unless of course you react to slow

Golden Retrievers are the bestest friends
They'll love you no matter what
They'll love you even if the sky's falling down
The bestest damn friend you've got

Robert Nehls June 28, 2014 at 6:47 AM I like this one, Jack. Those Golden Retrievers sound like great dogs. Never had one, but, I used to raise Newfoundland's, and they are great dogs too. Very well crafted, my friend...... Robert.

Carol Eastman April 21, 2014 at 9:55 AM Do they pee on your roses? Dragon Poops and pees on mine. I put Dragon in charge of my rose garden this summer so he'd stop doing the nasty there. Instead he's created Devils tower over my roses. Sigh! So I got the neighbor witch to put a spell on my roses. Every thing goes straight to fertilizer! HAH! Take that you silly Dragon! Wonder if she'd make him a Golden Retreiver. DARN! Grandpa Troll said no! Now I'm in my first time out at the lake... Hey! He's the one pooping and peeing! Silly Troll!
