I saw a light on this day
it came from my dear dogs eyes.
A bright light I must say
for it held me,
captured in its admiration
and honest love.
I have known many ways to love,
though some perhaps left unsaid,
but this was one time I felt
must be spoken of.
A love for honesty,
and beauty,
and pride and fortitude.
This dog had it all.
My best friend,
my proudest conversation.
I salute you,
dearest companion,
for your loyalty,
it is truly
unmatched.
