Monetary rewards of life

Established through labours long,

Disrespected by office minions

Jealous words from uttered tongues

 

Apathetic greedy offspring

Disinterested homebound wife

You purchase them their latest wish

If not, ‘’it's such an unfair life’’

 

Curled in her corner, soft-bedded

Contented, tail freely wagging

Unconditioned love transmitted,

No shouts, no screams, and no nagging,

 

Irrespective of what others see

Minuteman or higher-flyer,

For her, all joy in life revolves

around that smile, you've just acquired

 

An unbreakable bond, man and dog

That transcends all other loves

She will lay there, devoted, beside you,

For no reason, than just because.
