The Dog
Man on the corner argues his own shadow
no one stops to disagree
Woman in the window trills her tune
no one wants to listen
Child in the park chases a dog
And the dog
The dog chases the child in return
Slobbering, smiling, rolling, running
A gift.

Wonderful slice of life!
Yes! Connection in life is what is needed!
Sometimes dogs are better companions than people! Nice poem. I love short poems for the way they can say so much with so few words.
A gift.
Yes.
