Dog love
The great gift that dogs grant us.
That is the ability to feel in our hearts and souls what unconditional love really is. Both the giving and receiving of that unconditional love.
As regular readers know there has been a number of articles on Learning from Dogs in recent times about the relationship that we humans have with this genetic off-shoot of wolves with an origin literally in the mists of time. So it is an honour to share with you all, a poem about a very special dog, written by the grandniece of a good friend of ours here in Payson.
That grandniece is Meg and her dog’s name is Siku. Here is Meg’s love poem.
SIKU
My best friend in the whole world is Siku.
Siku is a smelly, thick-fur, cute type of dog.
Siku has a wet nose, round eyes and pointy ears like shark teeth.
She is a happy-go-lucky free-minded smart dog and I am so lucky to have her in my life.
She also is a fun-funny, hip-happy type of dog.
Siku is a run-running, camp-camping, playing games type of dog.
Siku loves to train with me, go sledding with me, and she loves to catch the squirrels and torture our poor little stressed-out cats.
When I am with Siku I feel like the whole world loves me.
I feel smart, cool, funny and loved.
SIKU and Meg.
