In shadows where silence loomed, A heart once distant, cold— She entered, gentle as a whispering moon, Her eyes, stories of love untold. From shelter walls, a broken past, To fields of hope, she ran, Her every step, a bond to last, A promise in her wagging span. Her paws, a dance upon my soul, Transforming nights to stars, With every nuzzle, she made me whole, Her laughter binding scars. Oh, souldog of the kindest light, In gratitude I stand, For in your presence, life feels right— My friend, my love unplanned. May years unfold, your path align, As we walk the trails of time— Forever grateful, souldog mine, Eternal love, our silent rhyme.
