“A man’s best friend,”
a woman’s, in this case.
A dog, cat, or lizard
make no mistake:
A partner for life—
not yours, but theirs—
for they’ll likely live
only a quarter of your tale.
There’s Jasper and Brulé (Booboo for short).
Diesel and Bella (the spoiled sort).
Lest we forget Tiger, Crystal, Mano, and Sadie.
Any fur baby—young or old, they are children
for life from what I’m told.
