Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened. –Anatole France.<br /> <br /> A dog is the only thing on earth that loves you more than you love yourself. –Josh Billings<br /> <br /> Men are from Earth, women are from Earth. Deal with it.- George Carlin<br /> <br /> A nation that destroys its soils destroys itself. Forests are the lungs of our land, purifying the air and giving fresh strength to our people. —Franklin D.

Wake up and hear the howl

Wake up and hear the song that chills you

Wake up and hear the throbbing, aching call

 

Wake up and see the faint outline of ruffled fur

Wake up and see the heave of it's chest

Wake up and see the throat stretched high

 

Wake up and wonder, "Who is he calling for?"

Wake up and wonder, "Why is he alone?"

 

Wake up and wonder, "Why do I feel the same?"

Wake up and wonder, "Why do I want to howl?"

 

Wake up and realize, Both of you miss somthing

Wake up and realize, Both of us want it back

 

Wake up and sing to the moon

The author's comments:

I don't really know if this is an acurate depiction of how one could feel if they lost somthi ng important, because recently all ive lost is my hat

which is more annoying than sad

 

so this is a tribute to the people who did lose something and want it back, I guess
