A Canine Holiness Code

Friends, some light fare to bring in the new week…

Every blade of grass, an exquisite story

Of the day’s happenings

The invisible jagged lines

Of another’s path

Sounds inaudible to my human (and aging) ears

Cause for cocked head and raised paw

If I could see half or even a quarter

Of what she smells

If I could smell a fraction of what she hears

Would my life be that much more holy

Or that much more distracting?
