This image shows a puppy standing on its hind legs with a bouquet of wildflowers clutched in his/ her mouth. Behind him green hill and part of a fence can be seen.

Bouquet on Two Paws

Upon a hill of velvet green,
A fence leans softly in the scene.
A puppy stands—so proud, so small,
Balancing dreams that could enthrall.

Wildflowers spill from tender jaws,
A gift of love without a cause.
No words, no grand design at all—
Just nature’s bloom and puppy’s call.

Behind him hums the morning breeze,
Whispering secrets through the trees.
And in that instant, hearts may pause—
To feel the world through gentle paws.
