It's a Dog's Life
By Zig Iganaszail
Who was it once stated that I'm your best friend?
Well, if I had a choice,there's no way I'd spend
The rest of my miserable life with you lot.
It's such an indignity being called spot.
It should be illegal, the way that I'm treated,
I think it's unfair, I feel I've been cheated.
I'm faithful, I'm loyal, I work like a dog,
Pardon the pun, but mine's a hard slog.
I'm honest, devoted, intelligent too,
You'd no doubt dispute that, but I know it's true.
I'm all of these things, just to mention a few,
And what do you feed me? Minced Kangaroo !!
I round up your cattle, I guard you at night,
I don't mess your lawn, I don't pick a fight,
I don't chase the postman, I don't ever bite.
But I can't take a trick, can't do a thing right.
I come when you call me, I never complain,
Yet you expect me to sleep in the rain !
You tell me I'm lazy, I'm getting too fat,
Yet I get into trouble for chasing the cat!!
You drag me along to some inane show,
To win some cheap ribbon, to massage your ego.
You think that I'm happy, you don't know the half,
You tell me life's tough, but don't make me laugh !!
You live in a daze, an euphoric fog,
Think yourself lucky you weren't born a dog.
P.S. Sometimes while dreaming, the notion will strike me,
How would you treat me, if you didn't like me?
A Dogs Soul.
Every dog must have a soul
Somewhere deep inside
Where all his hurts and grievances
Are buried with his pride.
Where he decides the good and bad,
The wrong way from the right,
And where his judgement carefully
Is hidden from our sight.
A dog must have a secret place
Where every thought abides,
A sort of close acquaintance that
He trusts in and confides.
And when accused unjustly for
Himself, He cannot speak,
Rebuked, He finds within his soul
The comfort he must seek.
He'll love, tho'he is unloved,
And he'll serve tho'badly used,
And one kind word will wipe away
The times when he's abused.
Altho' his heart may break in two
His love will still be whole,
Because God gave to every dog
An understanding Soul!
