Sighed By Sighed... Poem by Denis Martindale

Two dogs were known to look quite sad,
With frowns that said it all...
It was because they missed their Dad,
The old man known as Paul...

He went to work and left them home,
That's where they stayed each day...
Without the chance to freely roam,
Because he'd gone away...

When he returned, they both looked glad,
With smiles that said it all...
It was because they loved their Dad,
The old man known as Paul...

When he retired, life was great,
The dogs thought it was bliss...
They had the chance to celebrate...
No greater joy than this...

They went for walks and time passed by...
Till dinner time again...
With no more reasons left to sigh...
Praise God for that! Amen...
