A Poem to Express Your Love

Words often fall short when trying to express the deep affection we have for our furry friends. Poems offer a powerful way to capture those feelings, especially for our aging dogs. Here’s a poem that celebrates the enduring love of an old dog:

A Thousand Wagging Tails

Your tail, once a blur of joyous motion,
Now moves with a gentle, rhythmic devotion.
Your fur, once sleek and black as night,
Now shines with the wisdom of silver light.

Your playful leaps have turned to walks slow and sweet,
But your eyes still sparkle with love complete.
You greet me with a gentle, knowing gaze,
A love that has weathered countless days.

Through life’s adventures, we’ve walked side by side,
Your loyalty, a constant, unwavering guide.
Though time has etched its mark upon your face,
My love for you, remains a steadfast embrace.

A thousand wagging tails, a thousand years,
My heart will hold you, through all my tears.
For in your eyes, I see a love so true,
A love that will forever see me through.
