Espiritus Canis©
Somewhere deep inside
Where all his hurts and grievances
Are buried with his pride
Where he decides the good and bad
The wrong way from the right
And where his judgment carefully
Is hidden from our sight
A dog must have a secret place
Where every thought abides
A sort of close acquaintance that
He trusts in and confides
And when accused unjustly
For himself, he cannot speak
Rebuked, he finds within his soul
The comfort he must seek
He'll love though he's unloved
He'll serve though badly used
And one kind word will wipe away
The times when he's abused
Although is heart may break in two
His love will still be whole
Because God gave to every dog
An understanding soul
