Blaze {Blackby} by Laura Gleeson / Blackby, our loving Blaze.

This is a friends poem for gerbils:
My best friend
You cheer me up when I am sad
although, I’m not sure how
Just by being there with your silent understanding
you pick me up when I am down.
You listen to my every word
without once interrupting.
There’s consolation in your gaze
and hope in your expression.

You seem to know just how I’m feeling
and offer sympathy.
I could tell you all my secrets
and know you’ll never betray me.

If I need cheering up
you’ll do the funniest stuff
And you’ll go calm and quiet
when you know I’ve had enough.

I have absolute faith in you.
There are holes in my heart which you fill.
I hope you’ll stay with me forever
my proud and loyal.
Gerbil
