Hazel was a canine proud
\nA backyard dog
\nWhose humans, they
\nIgnored her cries
\nDidn\u2019t realise
\nOut there neatly every day<\/p>\n
The icy cold
\nThe frozen food
\nFreezing water
\nFeeling screwed
\nOver really by those who
\nShould be giving her love
\nSo very few <\/p>\n
human beings
\nSeemingly
\nConcentrate on the family
\nIncluding their dog
\nWho remains alert
\nWho watches the house
\nOut in the dirt
\nWhose body gets wet
\nFrom wintry snow
\nWhose water is frozen
\nAs well we know
\nThe wind sweeps sharply
\nAbout her soul
\nAnd she finds it hard
\nTo be in control<\/p>\n
No kind words to keep her sane
\nJust the snow and driving rain
\nWhat\u2019s wrong with humans
\nThey keep a pet
\nAnd then in Winter they forget
\nA dog she thinks she cries she does
\nNo where is dry that constant buzz
\nThe stormy clouds the freshest wind
\nNo food around not even tinned<\/p>\n
The backyard dog
\nIs always there
\nCrying often
\nIn despair. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
