by Yvonne Sparkes
You walk in my shadow
I know that you care.
Whenever I turn
You always are there.
Beside me wherever I happen to go
A more loyal friend, I never could know.
Through thick and through thin, good times and through bad
I come home, your tail wags, you always seem glad.
No person could greet me this way, every day
Or love me forever, or never would stray.
My confident, companion, my dog and my friend.
No thanks are enough for all that you lend.
