Dear Sally,

BEFORE YOUR TIME:
I cried,mom weeped,
sis neglected her job to sweep.
For you see,he was gone.
My old dog,Knitro,had finally left his bone.

We had went through tough times,me and my dog.
Snakes,sickness,divorce and all.
So,as you see,we were all sad.
Even my dad.

GETTING YOU:
It had been about 4 months since the passing.
That's when my now aunt started asking.
Mom took one look,and named you Sally.
With your fluffy white tail,just a waggin'.

I wasn't too sure,about getting a new dog,
though I was excited,all in all.
I was still kinda sad,for the obvious reason.
But hey,why be?It was the giving season.

NOW:
Sally,I love you.You say anyone could.
But what I respond with:Everyone should.
You bark at a knock,just to protect.
You sniff all around,so you can detect.

Though you make mistakes,like in the floor,
it only makes me love you even more.
No one,not even another dog,
could make our grip loosen,or make us fall.

Love you,Sally,

Kayla
