The Other Loves of My Life

The other loves of my life.
Millie the monkey wench.
Sam the monkey man.
Murphy the Minch.
Guess what species if you can!

Characters one and all.
A moody little madam who struts discord and her vexation for all.
A gentle caring lump who’ll head but you just for a bump. 
A gorgeous impressive fella with eyes that could search your soul forever.
They all have their little ways.
They all have their little cares.

The other loves of my life.
They live with us day after day, night after night.
They tell us when we’re in the wrong.
They tell us when feeding time is on.
They love us unconditionally.
They trust us more than we trust we.

The other loves of my life.
