John Berryhill Poet Rhyme

My Best Man

From my first memories as a wide 
eyed pup.
 The day when this gentle 
man would come pick me up. 
Though I did not know him I had no 
fear.
I instantly nuzzled his neck and 
nibbled his ear. 
Then off for a ride to 
my new happy home.
Then soon he would 
to take in a rescue so I would never 
be alone.
He said that she was my sisi and called her Jamie  
Giaco is what he chose to name me. 
We had an amazing yard with squirrels to chase
In this my life I had surely found my place. 
Toys and treats in endless supply 
I'm one lucky dog to have found this guy.
There were times i drove him up the wall. 
With my never ending, throw the ball, throw the ball. 
But he didn't mind and made sure my every need was met. 
I was more his son than I was ever his pet. 
He made my life great from beginning to end. 
I've heard people say I was "Man's Best friend" 
If that's what they like to say, it's okay they can 
But without a doubt, he was "My best man"
