An Abandoned Dog By Cousin Dale Thomas And Edited Very Lightly By Susan Williams

Rating: 5.0


.
No one wants me
and no one cares...
my coat is all matted
with dirt and tangled hair
.
They left me along a road
I thought it was a game
but I waited and waited
and nobody came...
,
Now it's night time
and I'm hungry and cold...
If only a voice would call me
I would be its best friend...
.
All through the darkness
I waited in vain
but my whimpers weren't heard
and nobody came...
.
For days and days that followed
I lay here by this dusty road
My scarred head just aching
and my blood scarcely flowed...
.
Then on a cold day
I closed my weary eyes
and went to doggy heaven
high up in the skies...
.
Now I never will be abandoned
and I'll always have friends
and never will be pushed out
on a dusty road ever again.
.
So think of this story
and study the minds of men
and know a scared little doggy
would never commit such a sin.
.

A sad poem of an abandoned dog. But i am happy that it is now in heaven, safe and secure. A poem that deserves all stars.

My cousin Dale does not seem to think he has enough talent to share his work outside the family. I think he has a sweet gentle voice that he should share with others.
