I Love You Buddy

by Ailsa Osborne

 I love you, of that there is no doubt. I enjoy spending time with you
You are in my thoughts even when we are apart
I see something that reminds me of you
And I have to go buy it.

We cuddle together with the lights down low,
I whisper my innermost dreams into your ear
I’m sure that you hear every word
And I know that they will remain secret.

I know that no matter what wrongs I may do
I can rely on you, you will always be true.
Each day you show your appreciation of all I do for you.
I am certain of your loyalty and trust.

You are always so pleased to spend time with me.
We sit in companionable silence and share a hug or three.
I stroke your belly and laugh when your leg starts to shake
You wag your tail and I laugh till I ache.

You are my best friend, my buddy, my mate
There’s nothing about you that I could hate.
We will be friends, eternal and true.
You love me Buddy and I love you.
