Poem about puppymills by me - YorkieTalk.com Forums

natalie · 07-17-2005, 08:18 PM

I was reading about puppymills and that inspired me to write a little poem about it.
I find it so sad and heartbreaking.
I hope you guys like it! Let me know what you think.

I know that God is watching me,
I know He hears my plea,
I know He has something planned for me,
besides this wire beneath my feet.

I am feeling very exhausted,
But I don't know what to do.
My body is aching, my legs are numb
and I do not have any food.

This cage is kind of crowded,
But I still feel so alone,
I hope that He will guide me,
And find me a loving home.

I miss my children dearly,
Their warmth is all I need.
But they were stripped away at birth.
Because of selfishness and greed.

The wind is blowing harder,
And the cage is getting cold.
I can feel the winter coming again,
I wish I had a cozy home.

I am beginning to feel weaker,
With every passing day.
I hope He finds me someone to love
Before I pass away.

Natalie, you captured the desperation of a puppy mill dog perfectly! We've got to get this stopped!! For God's sake aren't there any legislators with a heart?? This should not be happening in our country! I think along with the mill busters shirts we also need bumper stickers. We could use the same design as that decided for the shirt.

That was very touching. Actually got me crying. Please submit this to a no puppy mill website and make sure you get credit for it. Good job
