Your eyes held so much love,
I could hardly resist that look.
Yet I turned away from you,
I thought, ~ before I was hooked!

You watched as I went to each cage,
In search of a dog I had lost.
Whimpering, and waiting for me
To come back. ~ No matter the cost.

You had made up your mind.
It was me, that you had picked.
The instant our eyes had met,
It was as though we had clicked!

No, I didn't resist the love,
I saw in your eyes so sweet.
I took you home with me
Believing you'd fit in so neat.

Nine years have passed, and
You've grown so precious to me.
There'll never be another like you,
My sweet darlin' Jode.

Scripture from: Psalm 94:19
In the multitude of my thoughts
within me
thy comforts delight my soul.
