Tigers Roaming Freely

There is a little sanctuary, not so far away That I would like to visit and see myself some day It houses all the lost, abandoned and abused Exotic cats and wild ones people used to use Their stories are so very sad these tigers in a cage Whose past owners thought these animals Belonged in homes or on stage. Some had teeth removed so that they couldn't bite Others lost their claws so they couldn't even strike Some were chained for their whole life not ever left to roam But now that their in the sanctuary, it makes them feel at home They're treated with humanity, and fed the food they need They're not forced to perform or even forced to breed These cats are still behind fences or in an enclosed home I so believe what would be best is to leave wild animals alone A tiger roaming freely across the wild plains Is nature at its best, and more of their lives could be saved. 8/20/13
