Animal Heroes of the Day

She astounds
with her hounds,
that girl in play
as I watch her display,
for in her love
and care of them
her beauty shines
and they playfully whine
give me your attention
they say, as I walk by,
love us as much as we love her
we enjoy our love and kindness,
our mistress is a doggie angel
whom we kiss and play
enormous love between us
our hearts of love display
