CANINE LOVE

In the rainy days of September
Well, I remember
There stood a dog in the street
Waiting for me to greet.

From then on, I gave him food
To make up his mood.
As months passed,
Our bond became strong.

I named him Buzo.
Taught him to sit, stand, stay, wait and come.
And some fun tricks.
Oh! How he licks.

Crawling into his blanket in the cold,
Sleeping in the shade during summers.
He loves to be fed and petted,
Played with and pampered.

There are animals in your street, too.
Help them to survive with you.
I and Buzo are best friends
And this story never ends.
