The Homeless Dog

April 7, 2010
By Anonymous

Oh! How the homeless dog
With fur so dirty and scrappy
Who lay’s in the cold and fog
Can make me fell so happy







With teeth so large and brown
And eyes so cute and cuddly
I can almost see his frown
I read a name that says studly






Where are his owners that once loved his so dearly?
With his name so cute a perfect
It comes to me clearly
This dog I must protect







I now call this dog lucky
He lives with me in Kentucky

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."
