My Best Friend

I miss my best friend,
He was my little dog,
Not worth much,
Priceless.

When I punished him,
Ignored him,
Talked bad to him,
He always forgave me.

He was always glad to see me,
Listened earnestly,
Made me feel better,
He was a better person than me.


All love comes from God,
He gave my little dog a lot of love in his heart,
My little dog was a good person,
I am sure I will find souls petting him in Heaven.

True, Tim. Some dogs are better people than people themselves. May your pooch rest in peace, sorry for your loss. Nice write, my friend.
