You bark
You whine!
So many times!
Sometimes I can’t stand it anymore!
You cry,
You plead ,
You need me, please!
Just give me a little time.
I will teach you all my tricks,
I will show you this whole world!
You will be my side at every step
And I couldn’t want anything more.

You shaggy tail shall wag
During every single trip,
And slowly your whining will stop
As your view of this world will tip.
I will help you forget your fears,
You will forget that you once had pains.
I will show you that this world
Is made of some amazing things.

No one shall ever hurt you,
No one will ever scream,
I will hold you tight at night,
And you will help to protect me of the lurking beings.
You will be my guide,
In this world of ups and downs.
We will hold each other up
And help each other bound!
