I saw this poem on another forum. It says so much. :(
From a Dog to His Crabby Owner,
>
When you first brought me home with you,
You used to like to play.
You promised me that in your heart
Forever I would stay.
>
Something's happened lately
And I don't know what to do.
It's time that I remind you
Of why God sent me to you.
>
Your voice is loud and angry
When you're talking on the phone.
You growl a lot and say
That I should just leave you alone.
>
You know that I can't do that,
It's the crime of canine crimes,
I will be right there by your side
In both good and bad times.
>
I know there's human things
That I will never understand,
But I think that I am helping
When I lick your tired hand.
>
I hope I make you happy
When I fetch my favorite toy,
It used to be a lot of fun
It used to bring you joy.
>
You used to like to talk to me
And look into my eyes,
You knew there was a great spirit
Behind a canine disguise.
>
I love you even though you're mad
Your voice I will obey,
I hope that you still love me, too,
Although you will not say.
>
I'll remind you now
Of why I came here from above,
To give to you and teach you
All about pure selfless love.
>
So remember this about those things
That make you seem so sad,
You'd realize, if you'd play with me,
That nothing's quite that bad.
>
Love always,
Your dog.
