A Stump For A Tail
You can't buy loyalty, they say
I bought it though, the other day:
you can't buy friendship, tried and true,
Well just the same, I bought that too.
I made my bid, and on the spot
Bought love and faith and a whole job lot
of happiness, so all in all
The purchase price was pretty small.
I bought a single, trusting heart,
That gave devotion from the start.
If you think these things are not for sale,
Buy a brown-eyed puppy with a stump for a tail.

I received this poem when I bought my aussie and it describes what I feel to this day about him.
