Every time I feel like falling down,
your velvet paw gently lands upon my hand,
encouraging me to carry on.
You make passion flow into my bones,
making all of my worries and fears
seem so frail.
You provide hope
on the streets of fading moonlight.
You are my only reason
that I gained the knowledge
I needed to progress -
the experience of witnessing
a truly balanced dog.
As days go by,
I realise you will not be with me forever,
but the journey has so been worth it.
And every time I feel like falling down,
I gaze into your cloudy-blue brown eyes,
my heart bursting with pride,
because you will always be something
that I can be extremely proud of!
