They say love is blind. <br />But I don’t think so to be kind. <br />I think love is more an understanding <br />of the beloved faults and not grandstanding. <br />My dog Buffy is a case in point; as a dog she is incredible. <br />Well mannered, and her companionship indelible. <br />She doesn’t bark too much, just enough for the undesirable. <br />One flaw, which for her is very, very unfashionable. <br />She is continually shedding her fur coat, all year round. <br />My missus has to vacuum for her fur where ever it’s found. <br />I have to use masking tape to clean up Buffy’s hair. <br />Off the sofa and all Buffy does is questionably stare. <br />She is the envy of all bald men. <br />Fancy growing hair all the time then <br />And now and for ever and ever over and over again. <br />And I have to muck around cleaning hair all the time; a pain. <br />Never mind, I love my Albino dog Buffy just the same. <br />She is not a vicious dog, just playful and tame.©<br /><br />Jerry Behr<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-is-blind-28/
