talking dogs II
we stand together
backs to the light
casting long shadows
into a green sea
her ears perk
straining to hear
the cries of canines
lost in the night
”what do they say?”
she gazes up at me
eyes pinprick stars in a coat of ink
”they wish their litters
goodnight”

Love your talking dogs series–such respect for the other.
Simple, sentimental and beautiful
Awww.
What grace, to understand dogs and share their language in poetry.
Can’t wait to see more.
If I had a tail, it would be a-wagging.
