Memories of a Puppy
"Do I Go Home Today"?
My family brought me home
cradled in their arms.
They cuddled me and smiled at me,
They played with me and laughed with me,
They showered me with toys.
I sure do love my family,
Espicially the girls and boys.
The children loved to feed me,
They give me special treats.
They even let me sleep with them~~~
All snuggled in the sheets.
I used to go for walks,
often several times a day.
They even fought to hold the leash,
I'm very proud to say!
These are things I'll never forget~~~
A cherished memory.
I now live in a shelter~~~
Without my family.
They used to laugh and praise me,
When I played with that old shoe~~~
I didn't know the difference
Between the old ones and the new.
The kids and I would grab a rag
for hours we would tug.
So I thought I did the right thing,
When I chewed the bedroom rug.
They said I was out of control,
and would have to live outside.
This I did not understand,
Althought I tried and tried.
The walks stopped,one by one:
They said they hadn't time.
I wish I could change things,
I wish I knew my crime.
My life became so lonely.
in the backyard on a chain.
I barked and barked all day long
to keep from going insane.
So they brought me to the shelter
but we're embarrasses to say why.
They said I caused an allergy,
And then kissed me goodbye.
If I'd only had some classes~~~
as a little pup,
I wouldn't have been so hard to handle
When I was all grown up.
"You only have one day left"
I heard the worker say.
Does this mean a second chance?
DO I GO HOME TODAY?
Please don't let this happen
To your Best Friend!
Love them, train them, keep them safe.
They will give you the best years of your life.
