Pet Woes
by Deviled Jess on Nov.19, 2007, under Archives
I walked up to the front desk
Of the pet shelter
Asking for a random pet
Looking around I saw them crowd
With faces so sad and filled with dismay
Yet so proud
Their sad faces was once happy
Now blank and ashen
How I wished they weren’t so sappy
Hard to believe that people are so cruel
To be so heartless to leave them here
When all they want is some love
Around I looked
Sadness stared back at me
And instantly I knew, I was hooked
To a cat so dear
It was love at first sight
With happiness and regret, I left with a tear
If I could, I would, I swore
To have them all as they are
In my world, crying no more
