I'm weary and I am lonely and,I am so afraid. Please don't pass me by, will you come to my aid? It's hard to understand why I was thrown on to the street Left alone in the middle of nowhere with nothing around to eat. I wasn't given a reason for being wanted no more I was left alone and abandoned. Now what was all that for? I never did any naughty things, of that I am so sure. I never barked or ruined things. I even gave my paw. So why do human's feelings change? I'm trying to see why They would throw a good dog out like me, Oh my. Oh my. Oh my. And now I'm here inside this cage,there's nothing more I can do But pray that someone could love me. Could that person be you? Each day goes by and I'm more afraid. I'm afraid in here I will die. Because you all walk past my cage and, can't look me in the eye. You may not think I'm pretty cos I have awfully scraggy hair But that could be all mended if someone chose to care. Oh please just stop. Look in my cage, one chance is all I need I'd give you love in abundance and take very little to feed. I'd be your loving companion and like to end my days. Knowing that you loved me and, my funny little ways It's so hard living in here but, I have my dreams you know. So please don't walk past my cage. Please don't. Don't go I'm getting rather desperate now for someone to hear my plea. Please stop and look inside my cage. Please, please let it be me

About this poem:
I am a foster mum and look after dogs that come from the pound until their forever home is found
I have had dogs all sizes. In other countries they are fed almost anything that they can afford to give them. We are protected giving them their rabies vaccination. I believe dogs are protective animals if they are trained properly. They are loving pets. Good companions. They are not people. Here in the USA they are a business. I love animals and wish no harm to any kind yet many prefer to adopt a pet than a child in need. I see you have a lot of compassion for these animals and that is your gift. I enjoyed your write and thanks for sharing. SM.

I also agree with Red..would be great posted at the adoption center..
so moving to know or consider that animals truly need human beings to look them in the eyes
