A Poem for a Rescue Dog
This is a poem I wrote about my rescue dog, Darcy. I’m sure it applies to many, many dogs out there
A Poem For A Rescue Dog
A year has passed since we met our little man
A feisty, mini dachshund
with a coat of black and tan
We called him Mr. Darcy
because he didn’t know his name
and told him that from now on
life would never be the same
We peeled away the layers
and slowly it was clear
All he ever wanted was
a family to hold dear
His little heart was bursting
with love for someone who
could give him back some happiness
and start his life anew
To those who didn’t want him
To those who didn’t care
You had to look into his soul
to see the love that’s there
The journey isn’t easy
There are hurdles in the way
But I would never change him,
Just love him more each day.
