Little Black One & Co.

Many months have now passed by,
But despite my greatest fear.......
The novelty still hasn't 'just worn off',
'Cos I'm definitely........still here!

They told me that they loved me,
That they'd never part with me,
I thought "I've heard it all before....."
"......so let's just wait & see!"

I couldn't do an awful lot,
I hoped that I wasn't a bore!
But despite my limitations,
They kept coming back for more!

Every day they fetched me in,
And picked out all my feet,
They brushed me, cuddled me, led me round,
And assured me I was still 'sweet'!

They proudly told anyone who'd listen,
Of each new little thing I could 'do',
I started to finally wonder,
Could this honestly really be true?

Did they actually genuinely want me?
Did they love me as one of their own?
Having waited so long, had I really......
Found a place to at long last call 'home'?

Well, I no longer need to feel worried,
My original fears were all wrong,
There is now not the tiniest doubt in my mind........
I have found where I truly..........belong!
