The old dog waited on cold toes

While her master retrieved the mail.

She follows him where e'er he goes;

 Wagging fast her stubby tail.

The Disciples were faithful to the end,

For they knew Jesus was their friend.

He was not only there... but He is here,

 To greet us twelve months thru' the year.

Preparing to talk with  Jesus, 

Peter, believed and received Him too.

 He said, "Master.... it is good for us

To walk long the trail with you! "
