Cats are easier to take care of, LOL, they know what they want.
I do not have dogs now, but have enjoyed living with several over the years that were exceptional.
The Journey
Oh dream thy dream of eternity
as ageless as hope and as fair
for there in is the mystery I swear
for such is the way forever you see
like a comet across a celestial space
you see life in a line, an orbit of time
and with a strangely heavy heart you rhyme
and set your emotional load off apace
Ishmael you traveler, riding time across space
you hear a pacing beat among the stars bright
one only you can hear, in a universe you sight
amid the latest crowded ruins of the human race
