dogs are one of
God's greatest creations
because they love you unconditionally
because they guard you when you're home
and protect your house when
you are out and about
they don't care if you
walk around the house with messy hair
they are just happy you're there
they sense it when you're feeling low
and listen to your every word
even though they can't advise
you what to do about your sorrows
their sweet eyes and wagging tails
let you know they are there
and all they want to do is please you
