Pets

We are
Friends
With our
Dog unlike
Our cat with
Whom we are
On a more formal
Relationship a bit more
Room required more give
Than take involved yet both
Are dear to us and part of our
Family sharing our emotions
Our lives our sadness or
Our delights they are
A mirror of how we
Feel so if you seek
Appreciation get
A dog but if you
Like subtly try
A cat both a
Contrast to
Having
Kids
Since
Children
Must lead
Their own lives
But pets share ours.
