My Cold Wet Nose

By Katherine B. Parilli

My cold wet nose I press into your side,

Not to bug,

Or terrify.

But a show of love,

And out of a desire to play.

Oh my beloved Auntie, for your attention I do long.

 

My cold wet nose I press into your side,

Because for your attention I long.

For your love I require,

To give purpose to my day,

And to bring joy to my dark eyes.

 

My cold wet nose I press into your side,

So that if one day I am gone,

You will remember,

You will recall,

That I gave you my all,

And that I freely gave you my love.

My days of wandering this earth may be over, but my heart full of love you will always remember.
