BLACK AND WHITE

A lonely young girl,
dreams each night for a doggy.
A new furry friend to hold tight,
a new friend to play with.
Someone to love,
someone to care for.
One day her dream came true,
he was prancing across her backyard.
Her loving new friend before her eyes,
all dressed in black and white.
She named him Wheatie,
was this Dalmatian sent from heaven above?

Jennifer Proxenos Date: 3/28/2024 11:45:00 AM So so cute and so clever - a Dalmation dressed in black and white, the young girl, lonely and longing for a friend to love and care for, and voila , suddenly the friend appears prancing in her backyard. Yes I think that God had something to do with this dream and the lonely girl. Love it, well written Paula, Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.
