MY SWEET COCONUT

There’s no love that could be sweeter
Than the love I feel for you
My four-legged, furry puppy
Oh, how I do love you.

When I come home, you greet me
I leave all heartache behind
You can make me forget it all
Because you love me and you’re mine.

You sit with me thru sadness
When I am facing bitter loss
I know that you will comfort me
You’re always happy, never cross.

Your tail wags… a mile a minute
When I walk into a room
Makes me feel so happy
I cast aside all dread and gloom.

Your sweet face when I am lonely
I reach out and hold you close
I always know that you’re there for me
You’re the one I love the most.

    1. She’s a girl. I call her, COKEY. My son calls her….THE NUT! She’s cuddly, loving and affectionate indoors, but turns into a crazed monster when encountering other dogs…and/or people outdoors. She’s a mess, but I love her! 🙂

      1. Why did I assume otherwise? I didn’t read your poem properly… forgive me (bows in Japanese method of apology.. which really works if you picture that!!) xx
