Bonds.
She smiles with delight this six year old,
shyly she holds him, tired puppy dozes
as now played out she sweetly enfolds
Jack in love's bonds..
Little girl wanders slowly through adults
to show gentle rocking makes fonder
their glad Goodnights
for a sleepytime dog, whiter now pond
has wetted his coat lies dried, petted
and half smiles
in his furry near-slumber-land world
while the child
quietly sings him a lullaby then curls
soft fingers soothingly to stroke her
new canine friend.
Eyes like bright orbs glisten as chubby
face bends
to touch twitching nose pink rosebud
lips send
feather-soft kisses into puppyhood's
ball-playing dreams.
Hair falls in wisplets round sleepy face
as she stifles a yawn
and little maid's big day happily fades
when bed calls for
shawled safely her birthday treasure
contentedly rests.

Ahh lovely write Fay.
Lovely write Fay, obviously two loving friends.
Beautifully written observations of that creation of a lifetimes bond between a doting pair.
Brings a joyous smile to my face and memories of my puppy bundle of fluff 'Zoe' now long departed.
