Christie Macomber Poem
The fate of that puppy was unknown,
Just a little love was all she need shown.
I walked through the shelter that day,
Not really knowing what I would see or say.
Every little puppy had his or her very own story,
But there they sat and stared up at you in all their glory.
I could hear the little whimpering and cries,
So when I looked at each one, it brought tears to my eyes.
If only I could save just one or two,
Here they all sat, now the question was who?
My oh my what a big decision that day,
On who was going home and who was to stay?
Suddenly, I stopped with a glee in my eye,
Oh how beautiful she was, “ She’s got to be mine,” I said with a sigh.
The day I brought her home to stay,
She put more happiness in my heart than words can say.
Here sat this eight week old puppy, we named Sasha Lynn,
Not until later did we know how just how many hearts she would win.
She is a tough little gal, with a bushy little tail and sweet little face,
If given a chance, she would show how grateful with a lick on the chin and a sweet
embrace.
The love of this puppy has saved my life,
And showed me what a puppy’s love is, even in strife.
There is nothing like a puppies love and devotion,
So next time your near a shelter, take a notion, make a motion,
And Adopt The Love Of a Puppy!

Christie Macomber Poem
I looked in her eyes and they told the story,
Here sat this little puppy in all her glory.
If only someone would have listened and cared,
But as they walked by they just whispered and stared.
Here I was all dirty, ragged and sad,
All I needed was a loving family to make me glad.
I was hungry, and cold, no warm bed to lye down,
Please remind me again “Why am I still around?”
I can be as faithful as you want me to be,
Just give me half of chance and you would see.
I would bring you the ball, newspaper and slippers that are new,
Roll on my back for a belly rub or two.
When you go out the door and say goodbye,
I will be there waiting with a watchful eye.
And when you come home, and come through that door,
What a welcome home it would be and a whole lot more.
Now this is my story, and now you all know,
Just how someone put me on the street and told me to go!
I have so much love to give someone and lots of hugs too,
Who’s going to accept them, will it be you?
You see puppies have feelings, and their devotion is so great,
Just adopt that special puppy, and he will show you its not too late.
