A Good Dog Poem by Phil Soar

They give us so much pleasure and have places in our hearts
Who knows how much they mean to us, or where the feelings start
Four legs to run and never ending wagging of the tail
How on earth can loving them, ever really fail?

Your dog can reach a part of you, which nothing else can match
Can fetch a stick or run for miles, or just sit there and scratch
But in the end our lives are better while they all exist
And when it comes to love, a dog is on my favourites list.
