Just a Dog
You had a rough start in this world
You were treated very bad
As soon as I seen your picture
It was you I had to have
Those eyes harbored sadness
I could see you were hurt
You were timid and afraid
Would probably run under skirt
It took some time but you warmed up
We spent so many hours earning trust
From cowering and trembling
A new confidence grew
Heart of a lion if need be
Or one gentle and with care to
You became my best friend
An honest connection
My dog Murphy, a true bond
As far as family goes, he is perfection
