My puppy is soft like silk, gentle and kind

My back-up backbone, a savior so quiet,

A gift from a loved one, proudly he’s mine.

Silent all day, listens all night, he needs no necessities, a sublime diet

He chews troublesome troubles, sips homesickness,

Tiny paws hold tremors of a boy missing his misses.

My puppy loves me lots, with every seamless stitch, with gentle lightning quickness,

Metaphorical magical magnificent, wet-tongue-kisses,

A hero with beady eyes,

A gentle earth shaking love quaking adversity,

Holding happiness still until tranquil sunrise.

And as this boy lies at night so imperfectly,

His puppy curls against his chest, a blessing from above,

Pristine, perfect, pure, call it puppy love.
