Don't Hurt the Animals
Don't Hurt the Animals
I had a wild imagination. I thought that the mean people Would buy the animals And hurt them. I bought the animals instead. I bought as many as I could keep. I kept them safe all day. I watched them all night. Hamsters can cry. Guinea pigs can choke. Kittens can be smothered. Just like people. I saved them. Every time I could. But there were always more For the mean people to hurt.© Tara
