A Perfect Afternoon

(Click on pictures for larger viewing) 

    My Perfect Afternoon 


We loaded the car, Adi and I 

Its top was down, temperature just right 

We headed south, the breeze was blowing 

Car purring, Mustang Convertible 


Adi was purring too, things she loved 

We were a pet team, looking forward 

A certified Pet Therapy Pair 

Adi was my love, my Beagle dog 


Visitors, we checked in at the desk 

With tail wagging lady petted her 

We're ushered to the Alzheiimer's wing 

The door opened, her tail wagged faster 


One by one she visited them all 

The residents told of their doggies 

Left at home waiting for them to come 

Little they knew, that would not happen 


We spent the afternoon visiting 

Make residents happy, some wiped tears
