I have yet to see my Anthi get mad
’Tis true I did not give her reason to
How could I ever cause her something sad
Which could lead to her temper coming through
Her eyebrows are always wallowing like
Two boats sailing on a calm sea to Crete
I kiss her between them before a seiche
Takes its toll on my heart’s routine heartbeat
She grooms them to look like my love for her
I oft’ wonder how she does it so well
But then I remember she is des fleurs*
From every angle till I see a belle
Anthi is one of a kind on this sphere
No wonder to live I need to be near
-----
* des fleurs means flowers in French. Please note that Anthi means flowers in Greek.

Why Indie and Otis Came to Love OllieSupported by: Ollie
Like most dog moms, the best part of my day is the time spent with my dogs. I have an 8 year old Pittie mix named Indie and a two year old Frenchie mix named Otis. Indie is my soul dog and the love of my life. She has inspired me to become a photographer, a business owner, and a creator, among other things. She is the smartest and most loyal creature who selflessly makes sure that I’m happy above all else. Most of the time, she knows how I’m feeling before I do. When we’re together, she’s my shadow–never more than a few inches from me at all times.
