Walking The Dog

Included within "I Walk Naked into a Cloud" Publishamerica. 2010 ISBN: 978-1-4489-7989-9

A grey day -

Sure, a fine soft morning -

wet on the wind with rippling circles

that dimple the overnight puddles.

Misty rain lacquers the fallen leaves

to glow under sodium light

and washes asphalt paths

to tarry blackness.

The waking city stirs.

The early cars rush by,

anxious to head the traffic jams,

before the parking place is filled;

while little dog sniffs among the leaves

and praises God by being. 

Reviews

[Seashell]

we rush around from morning to night trying to fit everything in to our one day, not taking time to appreciate the wonders in front of our very eyes...and the poor wee dog is so very grateful for a simple wee walk and sniff...
lovely...thanks

lips ??

[Allen Smuckler]

Boy those lips look familiar...I used the same picture, not long ago in Confliction...It doesn't show it here but the site I found it, had a tear cascading from the eye within..
Very vivid and descriptive write, Chris
but I'm conflicted on how the lips fit...
