Dog

The dog sat lonely in the dark Its been here all day, sitting in the park He came with a man in a large overcoat Who sat on the bench and studied the tote The man tied him tight to the bench leg Then stood and left, that was nearly 10 Its dark now and the man isn't back The dog is quiet scared of a pending attack The dawn breaks for him over the hill A young boy with his Dad called Joe and Bill They saw the poor dog,tied up and lost The boy asked the Dad why it was covered in frost Dad takes off his coat and wraps him up tight He's warm now and happy, no longer in fright The bright lights of the surgery cause him to blink He hears the vet say 'Oh what a stink' The checks are over and he's found a new home New bowl, new lead and a juicy bone
