The Right Company For Me

I felt so lonely living on my own All my children had flown the nest, now grown They visited often and occasionally took me out for a nice meal Anything to make me forget, not to feel The passing of my husband had been a big blow He was too young to die, it was hard to let go One morning I heard a whining sound It came from my garden and it sounded like there was somebody there digging up the ground I opened the garden door and saw the cutest dog rolling on his back He was white and black I let him into my house wagging his furry tail I gave him some food and water and noticed this dog was male He had no collar or identification So, I called the police station Nobody had reported a missing dog, they suggested that he might be a stray I took him in and he wanted to play He had made my day Every night he stays by my side One eye half closed, the other open wide He is so faithful, as trusting as can be He might be slightly disobedient but this is the dog for me
