Dog Day Afternoon

[Bobby Del Boy]

Dog Day Afternoon

You bring me comfort when you're around
a peaceful easy feeling
When the world's problems continue to confound
your loving embrace appealing

You could be a dog, you could be a cat
Your warm body calms my mind
I ask you lovingly to jump on my lap
My friend you're one of a kind

We sit quietly enjoying the warmth
there's nowhere we have to go
You give me shelter from the storm
like a comforting fireplace glow

I'll try to love you the way you love me
you've been such a loyal friend
I hope one day I'll continue to be
as loyal as you to the end

Hello Bobby, Of dogs and men and grand companions versified with warmth and feeling. A poem for all pet lovers. I found it homely and lovely. Well done, indeed. Fond regards, Tony.

The gentle joy of quiet devotion, sweetly rhymed: a tip of the hat to you, Bobby; rest you.
