The Love From Dog To Human

I am 16 and surrounded by ill health. My Mum, Dad and younger sister have different variations of difficulties. I've found things hard for a long time and turn to animals for happiness and support. My first dog whom is now 2 is my best friend and has helped me through so much. This is a short poem I made about her.

It's a touching poem. It reveals how both young and old seek love in faithful animals as their necessity is not identified by the others at home or in society.

It's Just A Dog

You may be a dog,
But to me you're more.
You're the light in my fog.
You put up with our war,

"Its just a dog,"
Are the words from someone
Who has never seen fog
And whose wars have not begun.

Through thick and through thin,
You've stayed by my side.
Even when I can't win,
Even when hope has died,

You're the angel I wished for,
You're the best friend I've had.
You're all I wanted and more,
And I love you like mad,

I can't thank you enough
For the things that you do.
When times are tough,
I'm so glad I have you.

A very touching poem. Often in life, during difficult times we get support through unconventional ways. May the Almighty give you strength to overcome the difficulties you are facing.
