Just My Dog
He is my other eyes that can see above the clouds;
My other ears that hear above the winds
He is the part of me that can reach out into the seas.
He has told me a thousand times over that I am his reason for
being.
By the way he rests against my leg.
By the way he thumps his tail at my smallest smile.
By the way he shows his hurt when I leave without taking him.
When I am wrong, he is delighted to forgive.
When I am angry, he clowns to make me smile.
When I am happy, he is joy abound.
When I am a fool, he ignores it.
When I succeed, he brags.
Without him, I am only another person.
With him, I am all powerful.
He has promised to wait for me...whenever...
In case I need him; and I expect I will---
As I always have.
He is my dog.
