Lonely Puppy

By Megna Khatri
Grade 7, Nicholas Copernicus, P.S. #25

I'm a little puppy, so sweet and small
Sitting alone in a nearby shopping mall
Wishing someone would take me home
And brush my fur with their little comb

I am very lonely when all the lights go out
I whimper in the corner and even try to shout
But no one comes to hold me
Even though I wish it to be
No one can hear my cries and my desperate plea

So alone I will stay in a shopping mall
Desperately roaming through the hall
Will anyone come to set me free?
Or will I die with my last frantic plea?
