Loving Pets
Animals are kind, gentle and sweet:
The ones who sit on your lap
And beg at your feet.
They purr, hiss, howl and bark.
All they ask for is a place to stay.
You can train animals,
But,
They won't mind it if you feed them.
You can play with animals,
But,
Don't think they use you.
You can raise animals,
But,
In return they want you.
Have you ever tried to write with a cat on the lap,
Or a dog on the feet being kind, gentle, and sweet?
If you look through the animal kingdom
You find not every animal may prove its worth,
Is this what unconditional love is for?
