the pitter-patter of your paws on the floor
as you wobble around
So careless and free,
Your big beady eyes looking up at me
every day is an adventure
A new quest, a new journey
because all your little heart desires is
To explore, to hear and see everything
Just the strum of the guitar
sends you running carelessly towards me;
I never knew that such a little creature
Could make me so happy
You knock over my trash can
And spill all my drinks
But without you
I'm not quite sure where I would be
You cheer me up when I'm sad
With your brown fur and webbed feet
I'm very lucky to have you in my life, for
When you're around, I'll never be lonely.
