My great-niece and her dog
are the best of friends.
After a hard day of work
in the first grade,
Reagan has fun with her dog, Henry,
playing catch ball in the yard,
splashing in the lake
(with Mama watching),
and singing a merry tune.
There's nothing to worry about,
homework all done,
just running and jumping
with a girl's best friend.
Joy and song,
catching golden leaves
as they twirl and turn
on gusts of wind,
like birds let loose from their cages,
little Reagan and Henry are
two of the best buddies:
a girl and her dog savor
the lovely season of fall.
--Brenda Kay Ledford
I hope all my blogger friends will have a lovely fall and enjoy this beautiful season.
Some call it autumn, others call it God!

Such a sweet photo of that cute little girl and beautiful dog! The poem brings out the fun and joy of childhood!
Your niece is so pretty and I know she is well-loved. I like the photo with the handsome dog. Thanks.
I love the words "joy and song." They certainly describe this wonderful piece about your beautiful niece and her dog. Happy fall and happy October to you!
I can relate back Tomy own childhood with this prose. And such a sweet couple of best buddies!!
Continue dancing in the autumn breeze!!!
This is so sweet; your niece and the dog, and the poem. Oh, I've just caught up with your posts, back to the beautiful sunflowers. I LOVE the fall poem in your last post. Actually, I love them all.
Wishing you all the best in this glorious season!!
