“Meetika”

Hardship and continual suffering
Traits of the dogs that are
Out there in the streets all day
Running near and far
One such hound was in collision
That damaged her hind legs
Which made her crawl into a drain
Which also really begs
The question
what becomes of victims
Suffering like that
Animals aid unlimited
fortunately are at

The beck and call of people
And this wee soul was seen
And we were called to rescue
The little soul looked lean
Sitting in a gulley
On a dusty street
We placed her in a blanket
She was very sweet
Both here legs were fractured
From the impact we could see
So we sedated her
And strapped her legs up
And gave pain relief
To see
If we could reduce the shock
And inflammation and so we
Fed her and we loved her
And she responded beautifully

After a month she loved to snuggle
Up to those of us
She got a lot of cuddles
Everyone made a fuss
After six weeks caring for her
She began to be
Much more steady on her pins
And her tail wagged constantly
“Meetika” was a joy
To have around the
Yard for she
Was welcoming and happy
It’s where she loved to be.
