Summer Fun with Pets
Perspiring midst physical training best
my well-being jibes with Summer fun's zest...
here come my pets, dog and cat
pleading for my gracious pat
in God's warmth, we bask under sun for rest*.
*Matthew 11:28-30 Come unto me (Jesus Christ), all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
