Animal Lovers By Baxter Black Lets talk about animal lovers, Not those who protest and accuse, But everyday people who carry the load And dont make the 6 oclock news. Its proper to make the distinction When explanations are given, Between those who care as a hobby And others who care for a livin. When we speak of animal lovers, The part-time groups come to mind- Nice-enough folks, who articulate well And shine when the cameras grind. Its too bad more credits not given To the ones who seldom get heard. Cause, in spite of their modest behavior, Their actions speak louder than words. These are the folks, that on Christmas Day, Take care of Gods animals first. With never a thought they should have the day off, Or that they might be reimbursed. They believe that Genesis meant it, That man has dominion oer all. And they dont take their mandate too lightly, To care for the great and the small. Gods entrusted His creatures to us By rating us all in a log, According to what our abilities are, Most get a house cat or dog. But the bulk of the animal kingdom He placed in the hands of a few Who feel more at home in a pasture than An office on Fifth Avenue. God did it that way for a reason, Cause talks cheap where carins concerned. The title of animal lover is An honor that has to be earned. To those whod debate my conclusion, To your own youre welcome to cling, But Ill bet if wed ask His opinion, God knows that He did the right thing.
