Notes About The Poem

Grace

Grace

Black and white like a panda bear, 
but so much softer is your hair. 
Every day you smile at me, 
your toothy grin a blessing. 

I throw the stick, 
the ball, 
the toy,
you run and jump
with happy joy. 
You make me laugh, 
and sing.

Always coming at my call, 
even when I am the one, 
to fall. 
You never scold me, 
if I am bad, 
instead you take away,
my sad. 

You are a dog, 
a wonderful gift. 
And God knew I needed...
a miracle.

Hi Ann, I have to catch up, although perhaps I should leave things as they are and then go into starting a second book, you are such an inspiration dear friend. Blessings and hugs, Jennifer.
