Happy National Dog Day! Every day is Dog Day in my house. As you know, my dogs are a part of our family.
Here's a little something I wrote a while back. It was originally intended to be a children's picture book, but I haven't done anything with it.
Thought it would be perfect today.
PEACE IN THE EYES OF A DOG
By Kristen L. Jackson
In the eyes of a dog,
you can be you, and I can be me.
In the eyes of a dog,
everyone is equal and free.
In the eyes of a dog,
colors are all the same.
In the eyes of a dog,
there is never cause for blame.
In the eyes of a dog,
no worries, fights, or jeers.
In the eyes of a dog,
you cherish all your years.
In the eyes of a dog,
just a touch is a delight.
In the eyes of a dog,
the future’s always bright.
In the eyes of a dog,
you help me and I’ll help you.
In the eyes of a dog,
Sometimes help for nothing too.
In the eyes of a dog,
we talk and then shake hands.
In the eyes of a dog,
We share all the lands.
In the eyes of a dog,
We are best friends, you and me.
In the eyes of a dog,
if only everyone could see,
Through the eyes of a dog…
