With galaxies and universes, countless planets like our planet,
Earth and its continents, isn’t it blatantly obvious that even relevant
people have minuscule relevance,
evolution of man is incomprehensible in its definitive elegance,
but, what’s most important to me is less intricate and truly transparent,
a three-letter word that starts with a “d” and ends with a “g”,
without my furry cuddle buddy and all-time best friend of friends,
I’d have no means to an end,
my existence and this poem would be quite frivolous,
given that this is givenness
from the start to the end,
like a bark in the distance fading away in the wind,
what an ominous feeling
that reality is profoundly unappealing
but a seed that must be planted into my subconscious
a true conscious reminder to never take you for granted,
each day and every hour
our bond is unspoken, like that of my kin
but indisputable in its magnitude,
reflected through my imminent and perpetual exponential gratitude
the treats that you love that I love to give you, serve as my appreciation
of your existence,
never a quid pro quo,
just a token I’ve given you since you learned how to sit, roll, stop and go
it’s a marriage with no due date, without the need for a woman or man,
life is simply impossible, not doable, your inception is my beginning, my
furry pal, my roommate, a quintessential bond, a man’s best friend.
