A Dog/Cat Sits Waiting

An animal sits waiting in the cold, winter sun,
Too faithful to leave, too frightened to run.
He's been here for days now with nothing to do
But sit by the road, waiting for you.
He can't understand why you left him that day.
He thought you and he were stopping to play.
He's sure you'll come back, and that's why he
stays.
How long will he suffer? How many more
days?
His legs have grown weak, his throat's parched
and dry,

He's sick now from hunger, and falls with a
sigh.
He lays down his head and closes his eyes.
I wish you could see how a waiting animal
dies.

The above poem is a reason to prevent the over-population of dogs/cats by spaying/neutering your animals.
