Colour-My-World

Greetings everyone, from Artsieladie!

Having been involved, hands on, with rescuing pets/animals for many years, to see innocent animals suffer due to human abuse, neglect, and ignorance, is heart wrenching to say the least. This poem is meant to bring attention to the awful plight of innocent animals who are abused, neglected, abandoned, etc. through NO fault of theirs whatsoever. It's written from an animal's perspective, who's in a homeless, abandoned situation. I cried as I wrote it and I cry every time I read it, but I think anyone who has a heart at all will find themselves touched and will feel the sadness and hopelessness portrayed abandoned, neglected, and abused animals feel. Yes, "feel", because animals have feelings too. 

God bless all the wonderful, caring, compassionate people who give of their time, effort, money, and heart, rescuing and saving animals who wouldn't otherwise have a chance to know what being Loved truly means.

My world is cold and dark and grey.
The sun never shines to be happy and play.
The dark clouds hanging, always loom overhead,
Day after day, I ache with such dread.

No one to love me, not even care,
If I'm hungry or cold or lost somewhere.
I long for a petting, a gentle touch,
From someone that loves me; I long so much.

Each day I look for a rainbow to cross my sky,
A promise of someone that I'll catch their eye.
But as each day closes, hope fades, becoming slimmer,
Darker than night and its shadows, much dimmer.

But in my dreams as sleep overtakes,
I'm off to a land of no tears or heartaches.
In this "World of
Colour" is a rainbow glowing;
The sun always shines, not a cloud showing.

My heart is warmed with plenty of hugs.
I'm not even itchy from the biting bugs!
My bowl is full, garnished with treats;
My water is fresh, not from the streets.

My belly's not hurting from sickness or hunger.
There's someone to hold me when I'm scared of thunder.
A voice so kind of someone I hear,
Pleasant and cheerful, I harbour no fear.

A ball is thrown, a twig, a stick,
For me to fetch and return, reward with a lick.
My tail is wagging, overcome with joy;
Kisses by the dozens, I gladly deploy.

So much love, there's nothing I miss In this "World of
Colour" this heavenly bliss!
But.. then I awake in the first grey of morn,
And sadly.. I've returned to the land of forlorn.

"Colour My World, oh, won’t you please?
How can I, your heart, unfreeze?
Loyal and true, your friend I’ll be,
If in your heart, you can find Love for me."

"Colour Our World"
Remove the clouds from our darkened sky,
The greyness, the bleak, so overcast;
With a rainbow of colour, we can say goodbye,
And welcome the sunshine in our world at last!

A warm place to sleep, safe and secure;
Some chow in my bowl, fresh water for sure;
Are the basics needed to transform my world,
From bleak and hopeless, add colour unfurled.
For a nice home in which I can live,
Love and loyalty and kisses I'll give.
If you'll paint a rainbow across my sky,
I'll love in return till the day I die.
Will you...

"Colour My World?"

Let's Love Our Earth, our only home,
No matter where on it we roam;
North, east, south, or west,
Our Earth deserves our very best;
Our bet concern, our best care,
A responsibility we all do share.

Our Earth is where we all do live,
Take not for granted, but also give
Back to replenish, restore like new,
Love Our Earth, we all must do!

Thank-You-Leticia

Greetings everyone, from Artsieladie!

Many thanks to Leticia and the Google Team for all of your assistance. 
"Thank You, Leticia"

Just some lines in verse to express and say,
Thanks for all your help in a creative sort of way.
Nothing really fancy but with sincerity
And much appreciation for your patience with me.

It's been a pleasant journey because you've made it so;
With your friendly manner and this you must know.
Though in the beginning I was in a panic state,
You put my mind at ease right at the starting gate.

What seemed at first to fill me with dread,
You calmly reassured my anxiousness instead.
You turned a dreaded task into an adventure unexpected,
Shared with me your wisdom in a way I feel respected.

We humans are often quick to condemn and criticise,
But slow to compliment when warranting does arise.
So in life I try to make a point to acknowledge and reward
Good deeds and good works; leave not overlooked, ignored.

When we know we're appreciated, we feel positive and uplifted;
We feel blessed with worthiness and with value we feel gifted.
Google must be pleased with how you do your work well
And it is my hope my words will validate, verily will tell.

To Angel, Orleans, and Shawn, please extend my thanks, too,
With my creative Gift, may my gratitude show clearly through.
To the Google Team, many thanks for all of their support
That cannot in a survey be expressed in a brief report.

But now that this short journey is drawing near to its end,
It's a time bittersweet like the finding, then losing of a friend.
Leticia, you turned this endeavor into an experience I won't forget
And the impression for Google, I doubt anyone can any better, set.

"New Angel"

A brand New Angel heaven has acquired,
From earthly toil, you have been retired.
As the trumpets sound and the angels sing,
On a pure white horse, God did bring
You, a child of His, Home to forever rest
With Him eternally to be forever blessed.

God, His Message, was visually sent,
Divinely designed with pure intent
To inform a heart true onto Him
His Light of Love would never dim;
With the hour near for eternal reward,
On a pure white steed soon you'd board.

God knows our hearts, just how to speak
To all His children, each of us unique.
He chose for you a horse of pure white
Knowing you'd recognize from Who on sight.
To reassure you, you'd not be forsaken;
His Message, clear, not to be mistaken.

God sent His Message because He is pleased;
With animal friends so your heart was eased.
Knowing animals with you hold a special place,
He chose His creatures to deliver His Grace.
His creatures of three, all white He chose
Is because what we feel, He always knows.

Dear Sister, I've always looked up to you,
Since from my childhood but always in view;
Your art, your smarts, your common sense;
Your faith in God despite pain intense.
Our Love for horses we'll always share;
For all God's Creatures, we'll always care.

So many who Love you, now in despair,
Know you're with God, now under His Care.
Though hearts are heavy with tremendous grief,
Knowing you're at peace offers us some relief.
Your pain, your suffering, there'll be no more
Now that you've entered Heaven's golden door.

Know you are Loved so deep in our heart;
You'll always be in our most cherished part.
New Angel, enjoy your new pair of wings;
With Heaven's Choir, your voice now sings.
A new star's been born in the Heaven's sky;
I know with no doubt the reason why.

Extend our Love to your beloved son, our Mother,
All those we've loved and lost and our dear brother.
Rest in peace now my sister dear.
In my heart close, always you'll be near,
Until the day for which I pray,
When God calls me Home with Him to stay.

I miss you; I Love you and always will.
Our memories made must do until
The day again when we'll be embracing,
With smiles of joy and no burdens facing;
Just peace and contentment, in abundance of,
Flavoured and garnished with all God's Love.
