Knox must have decided
after the storm we needed
a pick up so he picked up
the biggest stick he could find,
lifted it high, and pranced about.

Yes, But
Yes, the lights went out,
but I had time to grab light
makers before night crawled in.

April Fools
April comes flying
in on great gusts of wind, but
maybe she is just
fooling around, pretending
to be May or September.

If
If my thoughts had been
wandering in never land,
I’d have missed the small
purpler bloom in the grass… right
before me in present land.

A Small But Difficult Start
Today may I take
a moment or two to note
what is actually
there both without and within
and set judgement aside.

Enough
In the slightest of drizzles
we walk. No sun, moon, or stars
accompany us. It’s just Knox and I,
drizzle, and gray sky
and for us that’s enough.

Hallelujah Chorus
Song birds herald
the end of rain,
the spread of birdseed.,
the start of day.
Through the window
the cats watch
but don’t join in.

Not A Match
Worked all day on my taxes.
Felt I deserved a reward.
Knox brings me a stick…
I respectfully decline..

Joy Walk
Morning air fills with
songs of lilting joy. Knox finds
his among the sticks.

Today’s Wind
Ever so gently
the wind blows today making
up for its former harshness.
