Absolutely precious! Our pets are so very often such a wonderful blessing to us — faithful companions and friends, loving us unconditionally. Beautiful blog, theme and challenge. Happy Wednesday and Hugs to All.
Over the years
many pets we’ve had,
the big dogs,
the small ones,
the cats and the frogs,
the guppies swimming
back and forth in the tank,
the hermit crabs,
and the chameleon
that escaped,
forever lost.
Each and every one of them
holds a special place
in my heart to
this very day.
They made me laugh,
and they made me smile;
they made me sad
and they made me cry.
And I think of all the pets
we’ve had over these
many, many years
and how content I am,
when I think again,
so very blessed
to have more pets now
than I ever did
as I open my door
and go outside,
the neighborhood finches
flying about and singing
their sweet songs
each morning and
welcoming me to the day;
the parrots that fly
so high in the sky,
so noisy I can’t miss them
as they fly by,
and the skunks
that make their presence
quite known,
and the deer and coyotes
and raccoon families,
and even the bears
that every once in a while
climb up in the trees
or relax in hot tubs.
The foxes and rabbits,
so many pets now
in the natural world
right outside my door.
I love it that way
and they make me smile
as I look for them
when I open my door
each and every day.
