Poem

Masterpiece

Every Dog starts life as a little blob of clay.
Its destiny is at the hands of an artist and each one an artist’s original.
The sculpture depends on how the artist molds the clay.
Mold with hostility and the dog learns to fight.
Mold with cruelty and the dog learns fear.
Mold with anger and the dog learns aggression.
Mold with praise and the dog learns confidence.
Mold with boundaries and the dog learns respect.
Mold with tenderness and the dog learns to bond.
Mold with affection and a dog learns love.
Bad dogs are not born, they are created by an artist.
Look to the artist for flaws, don’t blame the dog!
