Our Beautiful Baby

Her skin so soft with richness of love and affection so real, The eyes of a debutante, which speaks volumes, I understand. Legs so firm and powerful though they have weakened some, A smile that shows such deep wisdom and talent surreal, Indeed very smart she desires to lend a helping hand. An original breed, which has a reputation for being dumb . She has an even temperament; though do not be fooled. As a guardian of our home, she takes her masters tone. I came into her life at a midpoint of her now age. Therefore, she was already loved, adored, and strict ruled. Her affection given to a child she may have never known. At her beginning before, she had been treated in rage. I am at loss to understand why the mistreatment was given to her. Her stance shows that she had to have been a beautiful baby. Her eyes still show the love she desires to give everyday. A Dalmatian, a breed that is honored with spotted fur. She is older than 18 years with deep affection she gives to me. Joy and laughter, she gives friendship in every way.

Very original take on this "beautiful baby" entry, Cecil. Your concern for this sweet Dalmation say much about your character. I'm sure your love has compensated for the "rage" she experienced in her youth. God bless you, Carolyn
