I Rescue Because

I rescue because?
He can't tell you he deserves better
And if he could? he wouldn't.
He loves you despite all the reasons you gave him not to.

I rescue because?
She doesn't have a voice to ask for basic needs
like food, medical care, and love.
For her, your best is good enough even when it isn't.

I rescue because?
Dogs know when they've been saved
{when they sleep in a warm house on a soft blanket
when they have laps to snuggle into
when their limping gets immediate and thorough attention}
They pay back ten-fold with devotion never wavering
and eyes truer than the sky is blue.

I rescue because?
A dog is a better human than I am
{even though dogs are not human}
because they love without expectation of return,
accept others readily live in the moment,
and behave genuinely in all circles.

I rescue because?
I am a better human when I'm with dogs
and the people I've met through rescue
are the best humans I've ever known.
