    Man's Best Friend

    I love my dogs,
    I really really do…
    But there are some aspects,
    like when you take a back-step,
    and wind up stepping in pooh!

    They chew, they bite,
    they scratch, they knaw.
    When you’re watching a movie,
    they’re licking their paw!

    You’re sitting at the table,
    waiting for dinner to start,
    when along comes your dog,
    and lets out a fart!

    You all start gagging,
    and gasping for air.
    His tail starts wagging,
    He doesn’t even care!

    When you meet new friends,
    and go to their door.
    Your dog walks in,
    and pees on the floor!

    They dig, they shed,
    they claw, they shred.
    They get in your laundry,
    and make their bed!

    With all that they break,
    and all they destroy,
    they’re still the best little girls,
    and good little boys.

    When you come home,
    from a long hard day,
    they’re always right there,
    and ready to play.

    They love us so good.
    They love us so well.
    Even when our world,
    is going to hell.

    When my heart is broken,
    and the tears start to flow,
    I run to your shoulder,
    and let it all go.

    You won’t be here forever,
    so I try to make it the best.
    I focus on the good things,
    and forget about the rest.

    Whenever our bond is broken,
    I know it always will mend.
    That’s why they call you,
    “Man’s Best Friend”.

    • Hey Matthew. Thank you for sharing your humorous story about your best friend! I needed this laugh today. Dogs are almost like children. They torment through our belongings without a care in the world, but it’s absolutely out of genuine curiosity. “They chew, they bite” reminds me of my father’s American Bully that he had. Our dog would chew right at the base of our walls. My dad would tape the walls, and our dog would chew all the tape until it was gone. Haha, this piece brought me a lot of good and happy memories! Again, thank you for this joyful poem about your best friend!
