Member Of the Family

What would I do without you My precious, furry friend?... Part mischief, but all blessing, And faithful to the end!

You look at me with eyes of love: You never hold a grudge... You think I'm far too wonderful To criticize or judge.

It seems your greatest joy in life Is being close to me... I think God knew how comforting Your warm, soft fur would be.

I know you think you're human, But I'm glad it isn't true... The world would be a nicer place If folks were more like you!

A few short years is all we have: One day we'll have to part... But you my pet, will always have A place within my heart.
