You Tell Me
You tell me you love me,
but you really mean you need me
to know you are lovable, have purpose,
or a host of proofs you did not get before we met.
Others tell me they love me,
but really mean they want me,
to fulfill a desire, a dream, or a vision
or a host of proofs they did not get before we met.
You tell me you love me,
with your eyes, your actions, your
patience, your ever-present acceptance,
or a host of proofs I did not get before we met.
You are the best dog ever! I say patting your soft fur
and breathing in your scent.
Good one Carol. I know you are close to your pups. I know where you are coming from.

thanks Oliver – this one wrote itself quickly.
as the saying goes …..looking for unconditional love? – get a dog!
or a horse I’m told, but never had one —— yet!
This kept me engaged throughout, and then hit me with that surprise ending. Wonderful. 🙂
oh good…I had hoped for surprise!
Lovely!!!
Thank you Wendy!
