Poetry: Common Goals

We don't need that much
To be content is our goal
To have a plate of food
And over our heads a roof
A warm bed in which to sleep
And someone in our hearts to keep
A little love and affection is our bonus

You see
We are not that much different you and me
Pets and humans seek similar things
And even if things can't be perfect
We are perfectly happy with the little blessing we get

Weather we are human, mammal, reptile...
All we hope is to be well treated well
A little respect and dignity
And some common sense and decency

When it rains to have shelter
When the sun shines we hope for cover
Not too hot, not to cold
And a comfortable spot to grow old
