In the poignant poem "Forgotten," Jan Hedger captures the yearning of a forlorn puppy named Sam, who dreams of being free and alive like nature itself. He wishes for a life unconfined, to roam the fields, bask in the sun, and feel the warmth of a loving home. Instead, he finds himself alone and cold, reflecting on the longing for a family and a place filled with love, rather than being treated as a mere possession. This heartfelt piece explores themes of abandonment, hope, and the innate desire for connection and companionship.

Forgotten By Jan Hedger
I want to be As tall as a mountain As high as the sky As alive as the sea, I want to be free
Free to run Through fields of green To bask in the sun To dance in the rain, Free to have fun
To sleep when I tire In a bed soft and warm In front of the fire Safe and secure, Free from the wire
I want to be fed Know hunger no more A stroke on the head Love, and a home Not a cage in a shed
I lie here forlorn Cold and alone Waiting for dawn For someone to come Oh why was I born?
A forgotten puppy is what I am Bought for Christmas, name of Sam
