Thanks to Angel Brian, who is hosting Thankful Thursday, as well as Angel Sammy for the great picture every week!

My Polar Pal by Lexi the Schnauzer

I leaned too far to see the bear and in her den I fell.
She looked at me quizically. I thought, “I am in hell!
“Do you want to be my friend?” the big bear asked of me.
I’m loney here and have no one; I wish that I was free.

I smelled the truth of Lila’s words (I learned that is her name).
I tried to stop my shaking and think of a good game.
“Let’s play hide and seek,” I woofed. “I’ll hide, you look for me.”
I looked for a good place to hide and wished that I was free.

Lila found me quickly; she touched my nose with hers.
Then she cuddled close with me and gently groomed my furs.
My heart went out to this big bear; I wish she could be free.
Our wish came true! My next time there she’d been returned to her own family.

The End

Xena: I’m thankful that I’m not on display at some zoo, all by myself.
Chia: I don’t think you have to worry about that, Xe. I mean, who would want to pay to come look at you?
Xena: Grrrrr.
Lucy: Girls, please be nice. I’m thankful it cooled off some today. And that we got our much-needed rain overnight.
Chia: I’m thankful that we’ve gotten lots more walks. What, Mom? Yes, I’m ready to go walking now!

Xena: Looks like we’ve gotta go. Happy Thursday, and happy week!
