Pet

Have you ever seen a tear in a dogs eye afraid to wag his tail hoping you have a good side it's tail bent low and tucked to their underside the hurt in their eyes as they try to confide A cat or a kitten who has been beaten will take years to trust it's soul so weaken it will stay hidden in the blackest of shadows afraid to eat it's life a sad ghetto The abuse they have endured is beyond this world yet they will still try to love you wanting praise not scorn even when their little bodies have been broken and torn on the streets they wonder seeking only warmth Get up close and look into their eyes you will see the tears that do not slide but a broken heart from inside that cries we gave them a name so please be humane Please take care of me Even if I don't understand Touch me with a gentle hand T Reams 8/16/15 copyright Dedicated to the best groomer in the world who has a heart of gold for all her furry friends- Dede
