The following poem is what happens to companions, far too often.

"Alone Again"

I wish someone would tell me

what it is that I've done wrong.

Why I have to stay chained up

and left alone so long.

They seemed so glad to have one

when I came here as a pup.

There were so many things we'd do

while I was growing up.

They couldn't wait to train me

as a companion and a friend.

And told me how they'd never fear

being left alone again.

The children said they'd feed me

and brush me everyday.

They'd play with me and walk me,

if only I could stay.

But now the Family "Hasn't Time";

they say I often shed.

They do not want me in the house

not even to be fed.

The children never walk me,

they always say "Not Now!"

I wish that I could please them;

won't someone tell me how?

All I had, you see, was love;

I wish they would explain.

Why they said they wanted me,

then left me on a chain!!!
