PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Here I sit inside this cage, and I've done nothing wrong,

All I want is a forever home; I've waited far too long.

I'm very sweet and lots of fun; I promise to make you smile,

Please take me home and let the shelter put my card in the 'adopted' file.



I remember a nice, warm home with lots of food to eat,

Sleeping on the sofa curled around my owner's feet.

Then one day I was in a box and placed inside the car,

We went for a drive, but it seemed unusually far.



My owner carried me to the door and rubbed my fluffy ears,

And when they drove away from me, I could see their flowing tears.

So, now I'm here, and not sure why; what could I have done,

I had someone to love me once and now I have no one.



Please look at me and see the need in my big, bright eyes,

I need you to save my life, I know you hear my cries.

I might be older, and not purebred, but I'll love you to the bone,

Just give me a chance by giving me a final forever home.
