Love you? Love my dog.



Her four paws

could conquer Everest.

Yet your two feet

continue to stagger,

tripping over our love,

As if your desires stumble unsurely.

Her brown eyes

Emote a tender love.

Yet your shiny blues,

reflect less than nothing,

gazing critically at others

As if their weakness offends you


Her demeanour

Conveys contentment.

Yet your stolidity.

Viewed negatively by most

Considered stoically positive,

As if indifference strengthens you


Her tenderness

Offers warmth of heart

Yet your previous suppleness

Has hardened and turned cold

Brittle, and broken by the fall

As if your intention was to destroy our love
