A short poem to dog owners

The traumatic experience I had while riding a motorcycle when a stray dog suddenly run diagonally on the road and perfectly hit the front tire of our motorcycle. The front tire ran over its neck that causes its death. On the other hand, we tumbled on the left and got wounds and bruises on the left leg and left arm. It was not that easy to forget. Especially when I see stray dogs along the way. _________________________________________________________The Rough Poem O hail to you Dog owners dear Your pet are innocent And need your utmost care I couldn't help but hate Seeing dogs astray They must be kept For their own safety A lot of vehicles Coming your way So keep them To help them stay Or they shall be hit And ran over by some riders on the way Feel pity to them anyway

That is a nice poem you made. Dog owners should read it. There are several irresponsible dog owners who let their dogs stray. Owning a dog is a big responsibility. Stray dogs are not only ones who should be pitied but dog owners should also think about the street drivers. These stray dogs may cause accidents.

It happened last November 2011. We were on our way home for lunch. Hubby fetch me from the school where I used to work. While approaching a tricycle that was parked beside the highway, a dog suddenly plum in, we don't even noticed it but we were sure it came from the house where the tricycle was parked. Everything just happened in seconds. And there we got injured.

Hello bhaby, thank you so much! Just trying to express my grief in subtle way or by means of a poem. Heheh just a rough one. I just hope that they will take care of their pets and preserve their life too.
