What an example...
Gus has set for me
He is full of energy...
From his head to his feet.

Loving always to play...
Walk and run free
Eager always...
For his master to please.

Oh how we could learn...
From this happy little pup
Ways of expressing gratitude...
He teaches each of us.

He does not require...
The worlds riches or gold
Just a little love...
From a friendly soul.

Showing his thanks...
By a lick on the hand
Or cuddling close...
To show he thinks you're grand.

Just like our Master...
As He extends His love
With answered prayers...
Showered from above.
