Marilyn

“Marilyn adored animals; she was drawn to all living things. She would spend hundreds of dollars to try to save a storm-damaged 나무, 트리 and would mourn its death. She welcomed birds, providing 나무, 트리 houses and 음식 for the many species that visited her lawn; she worried about them in bad weather. She worried about 개 and cats. She once had a dog that was 의해 nature contemplative, but she was convinced he was depressed. She did her best to make him play, and that depressed him even more; on the rare occasions when he did an antic pirouette, Marilyn would hug and 키스 him, delirious with joy.”
