Here Be Free Poems for Dogs or Cats
Funny and Sad
Free poems for dogs, cats and others are here. They (somewhat tenuously) share the planet with us and deserve our respect and proper husbandry. At the DoorWho cares when you come in the door?
Lives to play fetching games, tug-of-war?
You're the world to your pet
Better friend, you won't get
And that is what puppies (or canines) are for.
There are cat people and dog people and you know which you are. Molly's family has had both at various times, the dogs rather more assigned to the menfolk, and the cats to the ladies. Some pets leave a very deep impression and their passing hurts more than one might suspect.
Molly's cat, Misty, died some time ago at age nineteen (yes, she was a Methuzela cat) but echoes of her personality still abide. She would come to sit on the keyboard while Molly was yet using it, as if to say, "You have had enough of sitwork today, get up and move." She was not an aloof cat, as is sometimes attributed to felines, cats are merely dignified and proper. From time to time, she brought offerings for the table, to the front door, her earnest green eyes no doubt puzzled that they were not served up immediately.
Cats and dogs work their way into our hearts for the unconditional love they provide. The children wanted to replace Misty with a kitten, but you know, pets are not really interchangeable, are they? Each comes with a personality which is unique. Pet sympathy poems are here, a start at least, and perhaps more later.
Losing a pet is sad. Poorly treated pets are yet sadder. PETA has much to say about such things.
Pet Sympathy PoemsLosing a PetDoes the world stop because your dog died?
No it doesn't, yet dogs are allied
To the human adventure
When they leave, we could venture
To say, poignant echoes abide. Variation for the CatDoes the world stop because your cat died?
No it doesn't, yet cats are allied
To the human adventure
When they leave, we could venture
To say, poignant echoes abide. We're sorry you're missing your friend
Please don't feel you need to defend
The pain that you feel
We know that it's real
For a pet's love can never pretend.
Let us turn this sad page and consider instead the humor and devotion our pets, and other animals, bring to our lives. Free poems for dogs, cat humor, and even the more exotic type of animal are fair game for this page, so to speak.
