avoiding the pastries
in the boulangerie
free petit pains

tell me all about thy greatest canine friend
and how they look at thee with such devotion.
Explain to me how such connections never end
and how they greet thee with commotion.
Dost thy beloved pooch wag their glorious tail
until their bum falls off allotted balance.
Do they resent the presence of incoming mail
and when told to stay do they still silently advance?
Art thou shown their favourite stick or toy
when thou has been gone just a little while
and are they not the goodest girl or boy
whose presence is enough to make thee smile?
They occupy a portion of thy life on earth
and yet thou art their whole, the centre of their world.
