To see us walking side by side down country lanes or city streets. You would feel the love between us both you’d see it in our eyes. I’d smile a knowing smile at you as you glanced when passing by. And she would then look back at you as she does with all she meets.
We walk past all the folk we know I say hello she nods her head. Sometimes we stop and chat a while I chat she just stands there. But all the time she’s looking round for someone she may know. Until I’ve finished chatting she’ll be listening to me instead.
Then off we go along our way until it’s time to venture home. We’re both worn out and tired now it’s been a long old walk. Past the village grocer’s shop the old school then the farm. Home at last she rushes past exhausted but still grabs her bone.

Yup Grandad
Unquestioning and non-judgemental love - and loyal to the end. They really are best friends.

I wished now that I had made it longer, trying to keep the reader guessing but I was impatient. I did try and paste aa picture of her at the end but it didn't attach when I posted the poem. Thank you for your kind comments though peeps.

My sweet 'princess of the orient' you are so clever as you are beautiful (my new found love mustn't see this) Velsi will certainly love you for letting everyone see who my poems about. Bless you

How did I know it was a dog...grandad...because..... I have just been mugged by a wagon load of great danes on their way for walkies.....Oh.....can't wait to own one again.....Niah

All the dogs I've ever had have all been wonderful friends. But this little girl is something very special, I'll tell why in a poem one day because 'normal' writing doesn't evoke what she means to me. Niah I hope you'll get yourself a dog, they're 'magic' really.

You are lucky to have her grandad...also have to say, Velsi is indeed both very beautiful and a very blessed little girl herself.
The poem warm and harmoniously in writting.

We often fail to realise that a dog is not just a pet but can be the most faithful friend you could ever have Silentspring. This little lady is something special.
Hi, grandad, Based on trust, unconditional love and acceptance between pet and owner is a beautiful thing to behold and read about - or, even better, experience! Thank you for sharing.
