Do not feel sorry for me

I wrote this poem about adopting my beautiful dog, Rudy.

Do Not Feel Sorry For Me





It was a cold December day

The temperature was 35 degrees

As I was drinking my coffee

I turned on the news for me



It was time for the pets

Cats and dogs to be shown

They were put in the spotlight

Because they needed a home



On the TV screen

What did I see

A beautiful dog

Looking back at me



I knew he was special

From the first look you see

He did not have four legs

But only three



I went to the SPCA

And told the lady

That I wanted this dog

To come home with me



I felt sorry for him

With his legs of three

As he ran and played

With the other dogs so happily



As he fetched the ball

Running back from the tree

I could hear him say

Please do not feel sorry for me
