Her name was Patches
wild child and free
9 years old
Smarter than most
Knows when there’s
treats in your pocket
stops – begs
Smile, old man
She rides for you
share the love

The weekend Trifextra Challenge is to choose one of three pictures, post it (with proper credits as provided), and write 33 words about it. I am completely taken with this little girl. When I was a teenager one of the popular songs of the day was Patches. Even though the song is about a boy, it is what came to mind as I wrote these words.
The weekend challenge is community-voted. I would encourage you all to go and read these many brilliant writers and pick your top three faves. The voting will open when the challenge ends and will last for 12 hours.
