4 Legged Friends

I needed to connect so closely to myself, you sent me D

He helped me find parts of myself I forgot about

He reminded me I have purpose

He kept me busy and committed

He protected me, even from myself

He softened my heart and helped me see the beauty that still remains

A cuddle buddy

A noisy boy

A sweet sweet baby whining outside the bathroom door

A yelping attitude of a bark when he’s hungry

Eyes that see the things I cannot see

Loyal, Tender, Caring, Protective

As life passed on, I wandered further away

You sent me N to bring me back to you, to myself

An abandoned boy seeking a family

Sweet, playful, curious, stubborn, and relaxed

A reminder of how love can be shared with many

A recommitment to my nurturing nature

A solidification of a piece of my heart

One more piece of my soul is coming home soon

Wild, free, True, a defender of justice.

I don’t even know you yet, but I know you are these things.
