On my way to visit Rags at the vet’s
Yet another lost soul on a busy road
This time, no helicopters or reporters
This little lost soul wandered all alone
Yet, her story is the same as Rags
Lost or abandoned by her family
Exhausted, dehydrated, terrified
Few noticed her, they couldn’t see
We have now received over 200 requests
To adopt Rags, since he was on the News
I doubt that we’ll find very many wanting her
The blindness in our nation makes me blue
I’ve already asked some people who wanted Rags
If they’d consider adopting this sweet little orphan
“No, we saw little Rags on TV, and we only want him”
The self-centeredness of we human beings, never ends
I very sadly doubt that any of the 200 people who wanted Rags
Will go down to their local shelters, to adopt another dog in need
There are thousands of these little lost souls, searching for a friend
Why so few are willing to help them, brings such utter sadness to me
