Even though he was timid
She had captured his heart
Never had he been moved this way
He wanted her close right from the start
################
She had a way so gentle
When he touched her she moaned with delight
Cuddling was all but a given
As he would sleep with her every night

So, turning to his mom and dad
He begged with tears in his eyes
“Please, oh please, can I have this sweet puppy?”
“Of course! It’s your birthday surprise!”
