Hi Kymberlie,
I saw your request, and the cat poem, in the FML this morning.  I've never
written a poem before in my life (as will be evident upon reading it :)),
but the cat poem inspired me a little and I came up with something for your
reading enjoyment.  You're free to use it for your shelter.  In fact, I
would be honored to see it associated with ANY ferret shelter.  Hope you
like it.
 
A Shelter Poem
 
Hello my little ferret friend
You come to me with heart to mend
I know not why they let you go
I only know you need help so
I tend your needs and then you start
To share your love, to steal my heart
The time will come to watch you go
With one I trust to love you so
My heart will break, my eyes will tear
But go you must, with no more fear
More will come to fill this hole
That's in my heart for each lost soul
But you my friend, the memories stay
Until my life meets its last day.
Hello my little ferret friend
