Ode to Bo

An ode to Bo. My first piece of poetry to celebrate what happened 6 months ago..... 


"They say that time flies and I guess it does, Just six months have passed since my first true love
Came home with me for the very first time, she slept that day and was looking just fine, 
all cosy and soft in my protective arms, if only she stayed there she would come to no harm, 
But the truth is she is growing, at an alarming rate. She used to just stare as she accepted her fate, but at six months she's a person, with her own ideas, she knows what she wants and she knows what she fears. 
This beautiful person is 50% mine, half my genes and most of my time. 
I can't even think what life was like before, 
since that wonderful moment you came through our door."
