My dog Stella

She was born down south

Unwanted and unloved

She made her long trip up north

To join my family and fit like a glove

4 legs and a wet nose

How could I guess

Would make such an impression

On our family and all the guests

She has settled in so nicely in our hearts and our home

She is now part of the family

She will now never be alone

A guard of our home and tribe

She is sweet but protective

From the day we rescued her

She has been nothing but acceptive

I am thankful for my gentle girl

And happy to give her a new life

A warm couch to take naps on

And a life without strife

So thank you sweet Stella

For all that you do

Although I will continue to ask

Who really rescued who?
