Frozen Tears

Poem Artwork
-->“In a perfect world, animals would be free to live their lives to the fullest:
Raising their young, enjoying their native environments,
And following their natural instincts.

However, domesticated pets cannot survive ‘free’ in our concrete jungles,
So it is our god-given responsibility, to take as good care of them as possible.”


Each and every bitter winter now, I grow extremely tired
Hearing people claim that their pets like to stay outside;
While out searching for a lost dog, I came upon this one,
Frozen dead and forgotten, and now, frozen tears I cried.

Please tell every pet owner you know to bring their pets inside
In this horrid arctic blast that is now gripping much of our nation.

©January 2015, Mr. Ed

Such a solipsistic society we live in. The me, me, me syndrome seems to have no limit. And yet, there are a few, like yourself, that selflessly care and act on that caring. Thank you for your dedication.

Anyone who was seen their dog shiver or seen bloody footprints in the snow ought to know that dogs cannot keep warm if they can't find decent shelter at times like this. If the dog has to be outside, at least a warm cozy doghouse is in order.

Ed,
Of course, you would think that people would have enough common sense, obviously not!!!
So heartbreaking....
Love to you for all that you do,
Amber

Ya know, Ed, one would think that bringing their animal inside is a given...apparently not but I have never actually noticed an animal outside other than to do their "thing"...I will keep my eyes open in the future...-e-
