Array ( [sid] => 179431 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Siemper Fidolis [time] => 2014-10-11 02:17:24 [hometext] => To he, of the manly bosom [bodytext] => I still melt when he looks at me;
with sleepy longing eyes;
His chin and brows are getting grey;
He’s slower now to rise.

He sees through gauzy curtains;
His hair’s in tangly knots;
His stride is not as certain;
His belly not as taut.

I feel him twitch when deep in sleep;
And more and more, he snores!
I wake beside him glad to keep;
His company once more.

We’ve been each others 13 years;
Of fun and fights and cuddles
We’ve known our share of love and tears
And troubles we’ve unmuddled.

We built our casa bella;
On trust, respect, and kisses;
He’s still my steady fella;
And I’m his favorite Mrs.

We’ve vowed until our dying days
That we will not be parted;
I, the lady fair will play;
To this lion-hearted!

Each day he will defend me;
And I shall swoon and praise.
Fiercely we’ll pretend that he;
Owns all that he surveys!

His secret’s safe; we’ll play our parts;
To love this rabble rouser!
For who could find it their heart;
To tell him he's a Schnauzer?
