Linda Laframboise Poet Couplet

One Voice, Their Voice

Eyes of an animal can speak to your soul
They show us what we’re missing
Ask us for love and protection,
To be themselves and always be whole.

Some humans think hurting them are fun
Would they like the same done to them?
They wouldn’t that I do know,
So we must be a voice for the helpless
Be sure they don’t cower and run.

Show others the kindness to give
Whether to animal, or our own
We need to be a voice, their voice
To show them they again can live.

Let’s be the voice they count on
Let them have a better life 
Know all humans aren’t all that bad,
They are the spirits of the world;
Have them feel, the hurting is all gone.

Lena Lorenz August 6, 2018 at 6:39 PM This says it all about some people who do abuse animals and let alone people but even like you said in your poem to be a voice cause the animals can't tell us so we do have to speak for them. Thanks again Linda Laframboise August 12, 2018 at 1:40 PM Your welcome, I figured the animals needed a voice as they can't reach out for help themselves and some animals do need that support
