Another heart-warming poem from the stable (sorry, couldn't resist!) of Stephen Katona. Thank you, Stephen - for bringing us amazing human-animal interactions and always with an inspiring twist.
Stephen, as usual you have come up with another story from the animal kingdom. Many of your heroes and heroines can put the intelligent man to shame! Your rapport with these dumb creatures is just amazing! With keen observation you bring to light the unique characteristics and the extra ordinary feats of your animal companions! Your poems make us think that animals are not just dumb creatures, but beings of superior endowments than we take them to be! Enjoyed this beautiful story!
Thank you Valsa for your lovely comments. All this lovely feedback is a great motivator to write more.
