Stray
As I sit and wait for a new owner,
I feel like such a loner.
I see dogs come and go,
As I wait for someone to show.
All the nice staff, they give me warm bathes.
They treat me like their own,
And even give me a bone.
I just want a new home,
Maybe they will give me a comb.
They feed me and play with me,
I hear a sound of a key.
I see the door open,
I sit here hoping,
That this is the one for me,
And I see,
My gate is not shut,
They called me a "cute mutt".
I have a collar.
I just want to holler!
I feel so sad,
That I left my friends behind,
But these people are so kind...
And now they are all mine!!!
