You're right. A well-trained dog really can be a best friend. I have five poems, but they are not activated yet. Why does it take so long for a new poet? Some of them were posted three days ago!

A lovely tribute to man's best friend ceremoniously rich in tone. A passionate work of art.

Sure cats are self-reliant, birds sing beautifully and no animal jumps quite like a frog but when you get right down to it… there's just something about a dog.....so touching and true. Beautiful poem. Thanks and congratulations for being selected this poem as member poem of POD.

A great poem. The line, ' They judge the person who is inside, ' contrasted with our human nature says a lot. Congratulations on this poem being selected as the poem of the day.

Delightful poem with some lovely touches (e.g. they try to make it better by setting their paw upon your hand) . We had dogs fro 30 years and your poem brings back fond memories.

It doesn't matter what faith you are, in what place of worship you sit or if you don't believe in a god at all…it's a little curious… you have to admit. very interesting poem.. you are so honest in your description. enjoyed reading your poem.. your lovely dog should be very happy if it had the joy of reading and understanding u. tony

Dog is the most faithful animal and never betrays you.It stays by your side in joy as well as gloom. The dog has been endowed with so many virtues and perhaps it is not a coincidence that when spelt backwords the term becomes 'God'.The whole Universe is the creation of God and we, from the smallest creature to the biggest animals are His chidren.Dog is surely a lovable animal and a true friend. Congratulations for this wonderful poem of the Day!

To start with…and this can't be a coincidence… I mean don't you find it odd that when you read the letters of dog backward it spells out the word god. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - No creature on this Earth greets you better when you walk into a room.

The only criticism I have of dogs is how soon their life is through If I had one wish….I wish that dogs…would live as long as me and you. It's a great poem for rare people like you realise and recognize the love of a dog, it's gratitude and care for it's master. My poem The Bull is in this line. Congratsbeing POD
