National Poetry Month April Poem. A Boy and His Dog by Blake Hoena
A Boy and I lis Dog A boy and his dog racing down the street Excited to go wherever they go She chases a squirrcl and sniffs a trcc He laughs as he's pulled along by her leas Oh whal fun they will have Lhey never know A boy and his dog racing down the street They splash through puddles on a muddy beach They romp around the yard covered in snow She chases a squirrel and sniffs a tree.
He turns away as she squats down to pee They run down the block and they run back home A boy and his dog racing down the slreel Who owns who the elernal myslery l'or these hest friends never go it alone She chases a squirrel and sniffs a tree He leads her home when it's time for a treat A cookie for him and for her a bone Then they are off and racing down the street They will chase squirrels even in their sleep.
