My Friend.

You
bundle of heaven-made cuddly innocence,

my morning ray of waiting ritual,

that looked-for gift of anticipatory smiles
as I open my night-weighted eyes,
you
docile bone-loving mistress of patience
have grown yourself into my days.

You
bouquet of warm canine greeting,

my favoured scent of available sweetness,

model of intelligent compatibility
dressing each rising in mutual attraction,
you
perfecter of dumb communication
make my aloneness so touchingly grateful.

Tessa my friend
by craft of affectionate silence
your dog-sense adds spicy laughter to life.

Sweet! I was wondering when we might read about Tessa again, Fay. She sounds most perfect...a perfect companion to share life with, indeed. My own two wonderful dogs (loving and adorable friends, really, just as you say) provide my wife and I with comfort and joy every day, Ma'am. God bless you and Tessa.

Tessa, is adorable and dogs are the best friends we will ever find. It seems they think their ultimate worth is to guard and love us for no other reward than a cuddle and treat.

Absolutely adorable. I like your pet one's Fay. I always feel
that having a pet is so enriching to life. It's been some time
since we had a pet, and you've got me a thinking.
