Title: To my Dogs
Post by: CLKD on August 17, 2022, 03:50:40 PM

How do I love thee?  Let me count the ways ........

I love thee agreeably - enough to let your stinky dog hide on the bed after a run through damp leaves, mud and slug infested gardens

I love thee steadfastly - enough to devote a year to raising you from a wobbly speck into a strong healthy adult (who promptly attempts to seize control)

I love thee passionately - despite your repeated efforts to probe my ears, eyes and mouth with the same tongue you use for various other atrocities

I love thee well - despite the amazing odious that you produce

I love thee deeply - even though you use me as a napkin at every opportunity (?)

I love thee madly - despite the various bodily functions that you have performed at inappropriate moments; in inappropriate places

I love thee constantly - despite the dog 'bladder curfew' I have lived by for many years ( :-\)

I love thee truly - despite the 'doggie land mines' hidden in the grass

I love thee absolutely - because you never; well hardly ever; hog the remote control

I love thee gratefully - because you stay by my side; or on my side

I love thee devotedly - more than clean carpeting, clothing, furniture, floors, walls etc.

I love thee bravely - enough to battle the indomitable flea and tick on your behalf

I love thee monetarily - enough to put the Vet's children through College ( ;D)

I love thee openly - I will bear any embarrassment for your furry sake

I love thee totally - more than free time, excess cash or a predictable life

Holy guacamole, this is so sweet, I'm backing every syllable. My pooch is like my partner in crime, my four-legged soulmate ;).
