Rescue Poem (Kleenex alert)

There are many poems about rescued dogs out there. This one is still my very favourite one.

_________________________________________

Now that I'm home, bathed, settled and fed,
All nicely tucked in my warm new bed.
I'd like to open my baggage lest I forget
There is so much to carry - So much to regret.

Hmm . . . Yes there it is, right on the top.
Let's unpack Loneliness, Heartache and Loss;
And there by my leash hides Fear and Shame.
As I look on these things I tried so hard to leave
I still have to unpack my baggage called Pain.

I loved them, the others, the ones who left me,
But I wasn't good enough - for they didn't want me.
Will you add to my baggage
Will you help me unpack
Or will you just look at my things
And take me right back

Do you have the time to help me unpack
To put away my baggage, to never repack
I pray that you do - I'm so tired you see,
But I do come with baggage
Will YOU still want ME???
