HOPE, a poem by Rachael Ann Drummond, USA Other Animals Poems Other Dogs Poems DUAL CATEGORY THIS POET COUNTRIES Categories: Animals Poems & Dogs Poetry Viewed 1608 times Author: Rachael Ann Drummond, USA Share Poem HOPE I sit behind the bars wondering what I did to deserve this. Why am I here? What did I do wrong? Will I ever find a home? I hear voices, I see people! I bark, wagging my tail. I scream out “Pick me, oh please pick me!” But just like my luck they pass my pen choosing my friend. I lay back in my cold, cramped cage. Would someone come who’d care for me? Love me? Days pass by, continued by weeks. Yet still I’m all alone in this pen. I give up hope, watching as my friends find homes, yet I’m still here. All alone. Footsteps can be heard; they stop near my jail cell. I look up at the friendly face. She smiles and says she wants this one. I jump for joy. “Oh yes, I’m free!” She laughs and says, “You’re coming home with me!” Finally I found a home; sweet home. Somewhere I can play and roam. Now I’m happy thanks to her. I know I’ll show her all I know. ‘Cause I never want to go back there. Back there where I had no hope.
