Poetry


A user on another forum (psychoslice) has put two of my poems to music - "You Walk On By" and "The World's Lament".

"You Walk On By" is the one I need rescue pictures for, so can anyone who volunteers in cat rescue either PM me pictures or post pictures in this thread? Thanks in advance, I need pictures ASAP if possible. I cannot remember if I have posted both poems so here they are:

The World's Lament

When the sun stops shining and the moon is dying
When the stars fade away to nothing
And the world fades to blackness
Will we look back and
Be proud of what we’ve done?

All the pollution and the unfairness
People have caused in this world
Children throwing stones at animals
Adults standing by and laughing

Elderly people too scared to leave home
Teenagers ruling the streets with knives
Is that really fair?

Humankind should know better
What goes around comes around
One day you might need help
Then where will you turn?

You Walk On By

I'm sat in my pen
With people all around
Wondering who to look at
I look at you
But you walk on by
Without a glance.

I'm sat here, lonely and afraid
Looking out at you
But you don't seem to notice me
And you walk on by.

I'm sat here wondering
If any of you will look at me
But no
You walk on by.

I'm still sat here waiting
For you to take me home
My old life was hard
But not as hard as watching you
Walk on by

I can't help my fear
I can't help my past
So I wish you would
Stop and look at me and
Not walk by

I've been here so long
Watching all of you people
But you don't notice me so
You walk on by

Re: Poetry


I have a couple of rescue pictures myself that I'm planning on using, just need some more if anyone has any.

Taken in rescue before we adopted him:


Other rescues:












I split this thread into two posts because the first post would have been too long otherwise.
