For my Poetry Packet. An ode to my wonderful 3-year-old golden.
Oh my Jaspar, my lovely, lively pet,
How did I live before we met?
Your coat shimmers like sun-lit bronze.
You’ve stolen my heart with figurative prongs.

Your paws are as sharp as claws,
You are unlike many other dogs.
Even at midnight you’d like to play,
Sometimes the couch is where you lay.

You always listen to my sorrows
You eat like you would die tomorrow.
Your main and uneasy worries
Only include a few ticks and fleas.

I know you would save me
And a hero you would be.
You love, beyond anything, the snow.
If I let you in my room, you’d never go.

You have the easy life
Which is for what we all strive
Oh my Jaspar, my lovely, lively pet,
How did I live before we met?
