puppy sleeps in the light
that pours from a south-facing window,
sunshine warms his gumdrop nose—
our boy, dreaming
of belly rubs, car rides & squirrels
basement overhaul
another winter project
plenty to keep us occupied
as we wile away the hours
morning constitutional
little puppy
with mommy, in tow
he runs low to the ground
beneath the wintry wind
more, then more again
fairway, dusted in white
descending from a January sky
wide at first, the circles tighten
wild geese in the hundreds
to mecca they come
honey fire
shared secrets
the camaraderie
of friendship
it matters
an indifferent silence
what’s left, unsaid
insensitively impolite

Monochrome Madness #25 – Places of Worship
I found Leann’s preamble to this challenge quite fascinating for a number of reasons that I won’t go into here. Suffice it to say, I wish our culture here resembled that of Australia’s.
Here’s my (short) take on this week’s Monochrome Madness ~
learning to thrive
single-digit cold
and yet, at times,
I welcome the chill
what’s that bright light outside my window?
the blinding sun
welcome, welcome!
been dark too long
