Knox looks at me
with inquiring eyes, then sits.
Hope for a tasty treat
springs eternal
In his doggy chest.

What will the results show
when all the votes are counted?
Did we the people
have the constitution to
vote “to form a more perfect union.
establish justice,
ensure domestic tranquility,
provide for the common defence,
promote the general welfare,
and secure the blessings of liberty
to ourselves and our posterity”?
JDG
We can help create
the new normal by voting
for reason and care.

I wish for Knox
a soft bed to rest,
but he prefers
to chew his nest.

Feeding the birds,
watching them eat,
brings moments of peace
in troubled times.

He invited them to play,
this puppy of mine,
but the cats they
disrespectfully declined.
He backed off, then tried once more.
Come on, Ladies, you’ll have fun.
I’ll even show you how it’s done.
But all his efforts were for naught;
hissing and huffing away they ran.
rejecting all the fun he sought.
JDG
After the rain stopped
the sky danced with sun-lit joy
to a brand new melody.
JDG
The ground graciously
receives all the fallen leaves
and makes no protest.
JDG
Golden surprises
on a gray, foggy morning –
look closely; they’re there.
JDG
Setting sun signals
Its slow departure while
owl yearns for the moon.
