Chained
Written by MARILYN MARINELLI


Chained in a yard where I'm all alone

Wondering why they came to the shelter

To take me home.

Do they think that my bark will scare others away?

Can't I bark just as good inside

And not be so far away?

I wanted so much to be loved and adored

And curl up next to them as they sit on the floor.

Petting me, I hear, is good for their health It will calm them and sooth

them

And cause them to melt.

But alas, I'm chained and I hope I don't choke.

I get tangled up sometimes and then get free

But what happens when I really need them

Will they be there for ME?

I guess no one told them Dogs are pack animals, you know?

We like to be with you wherever you go.

I wish they could know how much more I protect them,

If in there home I could be.

I'd know exactly when to warn them And I'd have a loving family.

So if you see me chained outside, all alone.

PLEASE, let them know I need love And a home.
