Get A Tissue!


I had this poem on my refrig, for many years, and it still brings a tear to my eye. Anyone who is a lover of animals will understand. I just had to share, so here it is...

Why Me?

I don't know why I'm homeless and no one cares for me,

I've tried to be a good little pup, good as any dog can be.

I had a home for a little while but one day I heard them say,

"You can't keep this dog around", so they took me away.

They left me on a lonely road; no shelter or food for a pup,

I waited each day for their return, but now I've given up.

There's only one who knows I'm here, who knows my awful plight,

A kitten that searches for food through the day; I hear her cry at night.

She lives beneath a pile of wood, so small, so scared, so thin,

To abandon a kitten so small and frail seems a terrible sin.

Help us dear friend, this kitten and me; so hungry and so alone,

Guide some kind soul to find us and give us a home sweet home.
