The Heart of a Dog.

Thinking with a soul which only nurtures, heals and cares
Helping warm the coldest nights with love it freely shares
Every day there's sunlight even when awash in rain
Holding onto heaven treating everyone the same
Earth's its happy playground rich in bones and bouncing balls
Alive alert obedient whilst breaking all the rules
Running till its legs give up and cannot stand no more
Then sleeping off the tiredness and starting as before
Once it chooses you as theirs, it never lets you go
Finding new and awesome ways to say I love you so
A stable core which never lies, or cheats or steals or leaves
Determined by the marvel of fresh empathy it breathes
Once inside this hidden home for life you are its friend
Giving love through every beat, from first until the end.
