My noteworthy gentleman of delight!. Spring in his step and flight!. Soft petals under his silk clad feet!. Fur velvets fluttering as they sweep!. Over waving grass and flowers forlorn!. Which he disdains as the hunting horn… Rumbles in his throat!. Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The Light Of My Life!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. He was lost!-not a shade of doubt of that; For he never barked at a slinking cat, But stood in the square where the wind blew raw With a drooping ear and a trembling paw And a mournful look in his pleading eye And a plaintive sniff at the passer-by That begged as plain as a tongue could sue, "O Mister! please may I follow you!?" A lorn wee waif of a tawny brown Adrift in the roar of a heedless town!. Oh, the saddest of sights in a world of sin Is a little lost pup with his tail tucked in! He won my heart, for I set great store, on my own Red Beaut, who is here no more!. So I whistled clear, and he trotted up, and who so glad, as that small lost pup!. Now he shares my board and he owns my bed, And he fairly shouts when he hears my tread; Then, if things go wrong, as they sometimes do, and the world is cold, and I'm feeling blue He asserts his right to assuage my woes With a warm, red tongue and a nice, cold nose And a silky head on my arm or knee And a paw as soft as a paw can be!. When we rove the woods for a league about He's as full of pranks as a school let out; For he romps and frisks like a three months' colt, And he runs me down like a thunderbolt!. Oh, the blithest of sights in the world so fair Is a gay little pup with his tail in the air! Www@QuestionHome@Com I've had my share of pets over the years When they departed this earth, I was left in tears!.
