HEIDE

Reflecting:  I love animals and made them a part of my new life.  Wherever I looked to live, I made sure I could have pets.  They listen to you when no one else will, they kissyou when you're all alone and they know when you are sad and when you are glad.  They are a great comfort and you are no longer alone.


HEIDE

Heide, black as coal,
She was my ultimate goal.

So tiny and sleek,
Always ready to greet.

You scold and then hug,
For the holes she's dug.

She barks, then whines,
When it's dinner time.

Each night we go for a walk,
Then sit down for a little talk.

She sprawls and cuddles,
 Oh no, not another puddle.

With each other we will continue to live,
So much love we have to give.

What a pleasure this little family of mine,
We're learning together, we are doing just fine.

She was my ultimate goal,
This little ball of fur, that's black as coal.
