Fealty and Love


Fealty and Love (16-196Z)

A friend is true,
When they believe in you,
They don't cut and run,
In those moments that aren't fun.

Stick through to the end,
Though others just pretend, 
Even when others doubt,
They stand to defend.

In moment of joy or pain,
They are consistent remain the same,
My action may cause shame,
They commit to stay in the game.

Life is shared together,
This works both ways,
When one is weak,
The other is strong.

Fealty and love,
To each other,
Two together,
Better than just one.

Dog Friend Bear

Bear, our dog

          Dog Friend Bear

My dog friend Bear,
Follows me without a care.
Loyal companion all these years,
He's slowed down yet walks still share.

Not as often does he follow,
Weather cool, he has a hobble.
White masks his face,
Age leaves its trace.

I pause more often to give him breaks,
He brushes close and rub his ears.
He's happy to wander the fields with me,
Keeping me close as I move irrigation water.
