Love Letter

Oh, the way you touch me!
Shivers down my spine as your firm
     but loving grip sends my neck into frenzy 
As you pull me to the ground, I willingly submit.
     We roll, entwined, on the grass.

Your teeth, locked in steel jaw force,
     sink further into my skin, I wince.
You release.
Your growl bespeaks your passion
and I growl in return, confirming our love.

Afterwards, as we shared your bone and
you drank from my water bowl
      as I drank from yours,
I knew then, that we would be together forever,
dreaming of hydrants and balls and
     biscuits and puppies of our own.
     I love you!
