Green eyed beauty with golden hair,
Tough as nails, she'll take any dare.
She is a lively woman with a ready smile,
Always listening if you need to talk for awhile.
She is funny as a clown, sense of humor to boot,
She can leave you in stitches, her own horn she won't toot.
She is just like Dr. Doolittle with her own little zoo,
When it comes to animals there's nothing she can't do.
She can check their heartbeat or help them give birth,
Always smiling, she is filled with mirth.
With her gentle touch, she knows just what they need,
Whether it's giving them medicine or changing their feed.
She has a quiet strength, that draws people near,
My Aunt Patty is who I speak, to me she is a dear.

Sounds like aunt Patty would be a kick for the kids to visit. You did a great job discribing her, and her critters.

A wonderful tribute to Aunt Patty! Just from reading this I can tell I would just love her to pieces
She sounds like one hell of a lady and a great friend to you as well as only your Aunt. Animals know the good people in this world. I always trust in that. I really loved this piece hun and I'm sure your Aunt will too.
