Beloved Pet

It was a beautiful Spring day,
the sky was blue with a bright yellow sun.
As we drove down the back roads,
pretty flowers were in every yard.
The boys felt I needed a new friend,
we were off to find it.
Our search lead us to,
an animal secure shelter.
I was ready to give in,
but it had to be a small lap dog.
As we walked and looked,
there was no match to my request.
Then there she was,
not small by any means.
We took her for a walk around the grounds,
then papers had to be signed.
Guess my new lap dog was only thirty pounds,
but she was definitely sent from heaven.
My new angel,
wearing a pretty fur coat.
