A Dogs Prayer
by Patricia Czubak
Treat me kindly my beloved friend for no heart in all the world is more grateful for your kindness than the loving heart of me. Speak softly to me often, for your voice is music to my ears, as you can tell by the fierce wagging of my tail, whenever you call my name. Please don't leave me out in the cold and damp. For you have domesticated me and I am no longer use to the bitter elements. I ask no greater privilege than to sit by your side. If you had no home, I would rather follow you through sleet and snow than rest my head upon the softest pillow in the warmest home in all the land. You are my beloved friend and I am devoted to you eternally. Please fill my bowls with fresh water to drink and food to eat, for although I would not reproach you if they were empty, I can not tell you when I hunger and thirst. Do these things so that I may stay well, to romp and play and do your bidding, or so that I may stand ready to warn and protect you should you ever be in danger. When the time draws near my beloved friend, and I am weak, deprived of sight and health. Do not turn me out, rather hold me gently in your arms while skilled hands grant me merciful and eternal rest... And I will leave you, knowing that with the last breath I drew my love for you knew no boundaries and my fate was forever safer and happier in your loving care.
Comments would be appreciated by the author, Patricia Czubak
