He is my best friend, not just a teddy,
An emotional support pet, cure for my fear and pain.
When I hug him, I feel sheltered from the rain.
My estranged parents' love resides in him,
And that is why I say
To this very day,
Why do you need a spouse?
When you have a foxy friend in the house!
He is turning 31 in a month,
Worn down from age but will hopefully outlive me.
His cuteness overload is so much better
Than any possession that I would be after.
I love him to the moon and to infinity
And being with him is my affinity.
xoxo I love you Renard

Can't knock a best friend. Estranged family is a real pain, I have some too. Unrepentant members of your DNA. Yet we find comfort in whatever means we have to. Hugs to Renard for being there for you.
