You take a spritely leap into my arms, like you always did(!);
if memory can cause me such serendipity as the reality of
when I first set my eyes on you, you little furry ball of happiness!
What is the peculiarity of love in its sudden delight!
How do you love a fondling, a child that is not yours
but of another animal, and, yet, so exclusively yours, that
your definition of such rapturous love is not comparable
by an entire lexicon but summarised in one playful `woof’!
I can tell your life was shorter, but it mattered a great deal
to the beauty of my existence. Like a pulsebeat forever throbbing
amid my preoccupations! Love is that simple unostentatious pastime!
Creature love resembles the love of God, the creator.
Can we understand your love in its simplicity (or complexity)
of emotion? I have learnt to realise that the love of a pet
is replete with spiritual insignia, if you have eyes to perceive
that the entry of a pet in your life is a cantilever to canticles
of accidental Solomonic wisdom. You realise that love can be profounder
in its speechless unconditionality. This love I hold as forever mine!
