A cavalier
that gives lots of love to you and to me.
For on the
day we celebrate a birth so wonderful and true
We have our
sweet little cavaliers to cuddle up to.
Their
softness and their beauty are as wonderful as can be
And its
easy to understand that love we feel when a cavalier sits on your knee.
There is
nothing quite as special as their soft black nose and big round eyes that glow,
and its wonderful to watch their tail as the feathers in them flow.
Their
gracefulness and look is something to behold,
for these
cute little dogs are always very bold.
And in the
climate where there is snow these cavaliers with a full coat will gladly go.
But in the
place where the sun is out and days are filled with heat,
There is
nothing they like better than on the beach, a seat.
And when
its time to unwrap the gifts and hear the laughter and fun, in the middle of it
all will be a cavalier on the run. They will crab with joy the paper and throw
it all
around, and
rip it all to shreds so no more can be found.
Once the
food is ready they sit quietly by your feet, hoping oh just hoping that maybe
they can taste the pudding that smells so very sweet.
They look
at you with eyes so large and round and you find your self completely
spellbound. Before you know it they are enjoying a treat, and the look on their
face you can never beat.
One can’t
help but giggle at the thought of Christmas day, and just knowing that your
cavalier will be beside you enjoying this very special day.
