My dear friend Ed,
Takes dogs and cats,
With him to bed,
And any other critter too,
The ones are lost,
Not in a zoo,
Wanders about in cold and snow,
Looks under every rock and rafter,
To find a pup, or kitten down below,
And then what does he do, thereafter,
He brings them home,
They’re in his blanket or his shoe,
Others go the New Orleans to party,
What does he do?
He rescues critters too, not tardy,
What else? Oh yes, he uses word and rhyme,
To advocate for all of them,
With insight so sublime,
A real Mensch, enlightened being,
He carries on an Angels work,
Not from hardship is he fleeing,
He always does his best,
Such privilege it is,
To know him, I am blessed.
And although my bed does get very crowded at times, I wouldn't have it any other way!
And Merry, Merry Christmas, to you, Bird Whisperer!
Edwin
Be always safe,
Karen
