I look in her eyes and I can see
the tierdness that rest in thee.

Her tierd eyes look back at me,
wondering what I see,
is it only me?

She is not a human like me
but the world she sees is the same.

She is not human like me
she's only a dog,
and she's my four legged companion.

The author's comments:
My very wonderful dog, Kylie, is the inspiration for this poem.
