My Bestie, Boo
Weighing The Love Scales
he was my best friend
he’d been with me for years
at the head of my bed
wiped away all my tears
soft green scaly skin
and short little arms
I was me with him
he kept me from harm
everywhere that I’d go
he was sure to go too
I was never alone
with my bestest friend, boo
he loved to watch movies
and make forts in my room
his fashion was groovy
as we stomped around, going boom
the day we packed him away
he held that smile on his face
when I have a baby one day
I’ll tuck him in their embrace
and they’ll make more adventures
becoming the best of friends
conquering the world together
because love like that never ends

This is really cute, something about 'short little arms' made me smile :)
Awww, that touched my heart! But hear me out. How about not having kids so that you and him stay best friends forever. Hehehehehehehehe
aww. this one is so sweet. well done.
This brings to mind my favorite stuffed animal of younger days. Great work.
A sweet take on the Dinosaur challenge; I like the vision of a child being happy and content.
