BarkUpToday.Dog.com Homeless Dog Poem
I feel cold and freshly abandoned,
My heart is aching more and more as I walk along the streets of confusion
Lightning strikes down on the road
Rain is pounding down on my matted fur
My stomach lets out a hungry grumble
Cars whizzing past me strike terror into me
I am a stray

WOW… Just beautiful. Wonderful.
Beautiful but heartbreaking. What a great 11 year old and thank you for blogging it!
Thanks!:)
Awww….sad…sniff sniff. Makes me feel SO good that Bailey is a rescue, though 🙂
Not sure if ‘Like’ is the right way to express it, but what a powerful piece of writing and to see such empathy in a kid is beautiful.
