The one absolutely unselfish friend that man can have in this selfish world,
The one that never deserts him,
The one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is his dog.
A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and in wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely,
If only he/she may be near his/her master's side.
He/ She will kiss the hand that has NO food to offer:
He/She will lick the wounds and sores that come to encounter with the roughness of the world.
He /She guards the sleep of his/her pauper master as if he/she were a prince/princess.
When all other friends desert, He/She remains.
When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, He/ She is a constant in his/her love as the sun in it's journey thru the heaven.
Senator George
1870.
A tribute to 'LOOLA' in s'pore and to our " babies".
