Animals are cool,
they have my utmost respect.
They ain't nobody's fool;
(it's 'horse sense', I suspect!)
Animals are 'humane',
much more so than humans.
Most of them are 'sane'..
(which is more than can be
said for humans).
Animals forgive!
Having been
the target of a kick,
They give
a lick to the prick
that kicked 'em!

i adore animals, i really liked this a lot. you're right animals do forgive and sometimes that can make them better than humans.

very cute
The background is cute and the poem is cute, too. I love animals so much. I wish I can support the program calls "ROAR", from the tv show Animal Planet. -
It's always so amazing that an animal, especially dogs, are so forgiving. I watch the animal shelter TV shows a lot and it's humbling to see that even the most harshly treated dog ands end up being a truly loving and wonderful pet.
Yes, animals ARE cool

We speak of savage or dumb beasts. However, unless they are ill, animals kill only to eat or for territorial domination necessary for living as they are designed. Every species communicates very well with its own kind. Perhaps we are the dumb and savage beasts in their way of thinking, and probably more correctly imagined as such.

I am so tempted to close the contest down now and give you the gold for those lines alone!
That's a cute bunny. I want one. I wish I knew someone who would take care of one for me. I'm much too lazy.
I'm with you, animals are cool...people? Not so much. LOL

Yeah!
So true, and I love the way you wrote it.

Animals forgive
for hatred isn't known
They only question why
but never turn to stone
Animals are free
for there's no denial there
They never think you love
when you no longer care
Animals move on
until they get there feed
For love is universal
and something we all need
Hugs...Eddy
Humans could definitely learn a thing or two about not harboring
ill will from our animal friends...
