[hometext] => This poem is dedicated to all animals who have sufered pain, neglect and abuse.
[bodytext] => We used to play together You called me your best friend You said you’d be there for me Until the very end What happened to make you leave me? What made you say goodbye? Why did you leave me here? Why can’t you tell me why? Was it because I chewed your shoes? Or was it because I pulled on the leash? Was it because I grew too quickly? Or was it because I ate the quiche So now I lie here waiting For you to come my way I hope you do come soon For this is my last day No one wants a dog As big and old as me Do I deserve a home What I’ve done wrong, I cannot see So when the lady comes To take me from my stall I promise to follow gently I will not fight at all And when she puts me on the table And inserts the cold syringe I will not even cry And I will not even cringe Because then I will be happy I will be in a better place The cruel people in this world I will no longer have to face But before I go, I must ask Just one last question… Why? _________________________ Written by Kristen Zekic November 2004 copyright Dedicated to all animals who have suffered through pain, abuse and neglect. When deciding to buy an animal, please think carefully. Ask these questions * Do i have enough space * Do i have enough time * Do i have enough money Because if you dont ask these questions now, your pet will end up asking "why?" If you do decide to purchase an animal, why not visit your local shelter. By adopting a shelter animal you will be saving a life. Remember this poem next time you think about purchasing an animal. Please remember, PETS ARE FOR LIFE NOT JUST FOR CHRISTMAS!! ______________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________ [comments] => 2 [counter] => 145 [topic] => 29 [informant] => kristenzekic [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => PetPoems )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
