I spent the day in the park,
saved it permanently with these words
with their historical weight.
Among all the world's relationships,
the one with dog breeds faithful
companionship through seasons,
rough waters, frigid waters,
pathfinding and warm fur fuzzy
lost ways and frothy waves
today a multitude of these metaphors
sponsor my conscoius thought,
upend the usual cerebral pathways.
I longed to take the day
to reconnect, rest, re-create,
then learned of further duties
One look at my companion,
the white concavities framing his eyes,
then deepening cavities incise,
and we left for the woods.
