description: Man’s best friend has always been a source of comfort and calm for owners—and that makes the combination of dogs and Desiderata such a superb match. Each phrase in the poem receives just the right accompanying image: a black Lab resting quietly on the beach illustrates “and remember what peace there may be in silence.” A cute mutt with its face cocked to the side—as if concentrating on a conversation—demonstrates what it means to “listen to others.” A pair consisting of one large and one small doggie reveals the truth that: “For always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.” Every dog lover will be charmed.
