Feeling ~
But
There
By the door
Of dawns
And sunsets
You remind me
To practise
The daily art
Of
A faithful
Warm

Gemma !!!!! How I love dogs ! This fellow is really so cute ! :)
I too have a reference to canine 'faithfulness' in mine !
Cute little fella, that. And I bet it's cheap to keep. Low on food, vet's bills, etc :-)
it is a daily art, and it does require practice - unless you're a dog, stone or flesh, and we know: all dogs go to heaven.
Sooooo cute Gemma! He really has an interesting smile and what a great way to be reminded to smile,smile,smile! I need one of those, many a day. This brought a smile to my face. Thanks.
I'm not a doggy person, but who could fail to be charmed by that little chap!
What friends are for - to remind us of good times and keep us smiling.
We need more little guys like him to keep the smiles on our faces. Lovely poem.
Definitely brought a smile to my face. :)
Gemma,
People, places and sometimes things like this serves to remind us that life is good and no matter what our days bring we should always manage to smile and life would smile back on us.
Thanks for sharing with us this thing so filled with life bringing us smiles in our faces in a lovely poem that simply did that.
I wish you well.
