Whispering, why we do rescue

Basenji Rescue
  • Whispering

    I am the dog you see on the chain.
    I am the cat you see in the drain.

    I am the friend who has no home.
    I am the stray who lives all alone.

    I am the friend you helped today.
    I am the one you transported far away.

    I am the voice you hear in your head.
    I am the caged animal who often dreads.

    I am the opinion you are trying to change.
    I am the anger you feel, and the rage.

    I am the tears you cry when I am sick.
    I am the hurt you feel, but cannot fix.

    I am the voice in your head, when you cannot sleep.
    I am the reason for the long hours that you keep.

    I am the voice who desperately needs you,
    And if not you?then who?

    I am whispering
    and you are my voice.

    I sure wish I knew who wrote this.

  • How wonderful and so descriptive. I'm going to copy this one, if I may?

  • Yes, please. I just wish I knew who was talented enough to put how I feel into words.

  • Beautiful Sharron..I might borrow it too..

  • Please share it..if it opens one home to a dog in need, its done what the author intended.

    Reading the story in the first link, I didn't look at the others after that, literally made me nauseous. It's hard to imagine a person could do that to any living creature and I hate the fact that animal abuse laws have not been updated and therefore do not give out as harsh of punishments as they should.
