A Dog’s Life

Snuggled next to loving owners
Whom I cherish and adore.
Fed dog treats and puppacinos
Could a doggie ask for more?

Lovely walks and grassy meadows,
Snoozing spread out on the couch,
Looking up out of the window,
Playing fetch I love so much.

Soothing strokes, a calming influence,
Finding the best sticks to chew.
But, of course, the best thing really
Is eating Dad's favourite shoe!

Still you love me and adore me
As, of course, I love you too.
And we never will be parted,
Friends forever, me and you!
Poppet’s head lovingly resting on my lap.

The Hug

Here's a little hug for you,
Whenever you are feeling blue.
Now shut your eyes and slow your breath,
And feel the comforting caress,
As Jesus takes you in His arms.
He'll take your sorrows and your frowns,
Replacing them with love and calm.
He'll take your worries and your fears,
And gently wipe away your tears.
He whispers "I am here for you",
And you know these words are true.
Poppet and daughter – hug time.
