Printer-friendly versionA Girl And Her Dog
by Edeyn Hannah Blackeney
He's always there, waiting, quivering with anticipation of the merest scritch behind the ears...
Titles with more than one word, are not General Audiences due to content or emotionally
-- a title that DOES have only one word, is safe for everyone to read.
He's big enough to flatten her,
But he's a big ole gentle cur.

He's always there, waiting, quivering with anticipation of the merest scritch behind the ears...
-- a title that DOES have only one word, is safe for everyone to read.
He's big enough to flatten her,
But he's a big ole gentle cur.
He's great at playing frisbee,
He's wonderful at tag.
He loves just being cuddly,
And quiet's not his bag.
He's always game for hide and seek,
Or romping, splashing in the creek.
Spending hours ev'ry day,
To laugh and play and romp.
Always getting her own way,
And greets him wih a 'Glomp!'
The thing at which he is the best,
Is keeping secrets never guessed.
Tells him of her wanted dress,
But he won't tell a one.
All her hopes to him confess,
He listens 'til she's done.
She dreams of how it would be cool,
To wear a skirt -- not pants -- to school.

(And did you ever see or read Harlan Ellison's A BOY AND HIS DOG?
Now there's a dystopian SF universe just begging for a tg twist!)

Nope
But I did have in mind Tom Smith's tribute to Jim Henson, A Boy and His Frog
Give it a listen, here
Unconditional love ...
... is one of the most amazing things one can find, and this poem seems to display this kinda love pretty well. Being transgendered can sometimes test how far unconditional goes, but I've never known a pet to have any issues with me or to love me any less, no matter how I was dressed or acting.
