The poet’s dog

Curled up in a ball
and sleeping as I write
My faithful hound called ‘Obi’
is a lovely sight

Constant

 

Life has its moments
Some happy, some sad
But I have my one constant
Of which I am glad
For no matter what
Life can throw at me
One thing never changes
My constant, the sea

My little dog

 

My little dog called Obi
is eight months old today
He’s great to have around the place
for both a cuddle and a play
He’s got some Dachshund in him
some Jack Russell there as well
And he’s got some stupid ears
as from the picture you can tell

Unconditional

 

I don’t ask for much in life
I settle for the least
A bed to sleep in, warm at night
And now and then a feast

You are …

You are

The hot chocolate blend

I’ve been searching for

All this time.

A fountain of brotherhood: Acrostic.

Empathy

E –  Envy that you don’t need

M-  Making the other feel important in feat

P-  Patience displayed when you have no time to spare’

A – Acceptance of differences of opinion: gift to inhabit in the mind of the other.

T – Tolerant enough for the shoulder to spare,

H-  Hope for the hopeless,

Y – Young and not so young at heart, all deserve empathy

My Old Friend

You picked me the moment we met
And you knew right from the start
We were supposed to be together
You ran straight to my arms and into my heart.
I couldn’t ask for a more loyal companion
You’d risk your life to save mine.
When I was sick in bed for a week
You stayed right by my side the whole time.

My Old Friend,
Life with you is better, My Old Friend
It’s always an adventure I wish would never end,
And I’m glad we have each other, My Old Friend!
