This is a poem that I really like and that I think it tells the truth. "If animals could talk what do you think they would say. More than likely it would be please stop abusing me this way. But animals cannot talk so for them we must speak. They are poor, helpless, and weak. They cannot care for themselves or get their own water and food. Please don’t hit me again. I promise to be good. Don’t leave me tied to this tree. I need freedom to roam. Can’t you see? I have never hurt you so what is it that I have done? I only want to play and have a little fun. I am an animal but I can feel pain too. Please don’t abuse me I just want to love you." By: Lori Beeler
