The Weavers

Together
We weave
A safety net
You and I
Each hand the warp
Each deed the weft
To catch each dog
And bring them to
Safe harbor.
Every dog.
Every time.

Together
We can
Keep these babies safe.
That they never know hunger
Or an unkind face
That their every sleep
Be dreamless
Sweet
That their every waking hour
Be happy
Carefree.

So that no Lappy, Ever,
Sits alone and scared
In a lonely cell
In an overcrowded shelter
Or dies alone
Forgotten
At the hands of a stranger
Because no one came
In time
And said
"I'll take her."

Every dog
Every time
Warp and weft
We are
Powerful strong
Together
