Notes About The Poem

Princess the Chihuahua had to be spayed on Thursday..She is not feeling well..I feel for her..She seems to be in pain..Sara

The Patsy

Standing at the edge
Fear~pain~or fun~fear~pain
Big brown fearful eyes
Begging help me...

So I help her down onto the floor
Picking up her chew stick
Comes to me again
Big brown sad eyes help me

Understanding her agony
Bend over lift her up
Now she's in her comfort zone
Chewing away on her bone
Sitting next to the patsy

Jack Horne September 24, 2011 at 3:43 PM Sweet piece for poor Princess, my friend. Does Patsy mean a sort of nurse? Or someone who pats, perhaps?

Wayne Sapp September 24, 2011 at 3:23 PM Good stuff Sara. I volunteer at a Greyhound rescue place; I'm the Patsy for around 35 dogs. I like them much better than people. Wayne
