Hi God,
I suppose that it is good
that I have the dogs
to make me go out
on a fine day like this.
Why would anyone be inside today?
Well, they might be in bed,
nursing a cold, hoping to rest up
for an early morning tomorrow.
But dogs don’t think about such things.
To them the day is fine,
as indeed it is,
and therefore to be savored.
I feel blessed by them…I think.
Amen
