Four Dogs

Bliss Like Chaos---
I was sad, and wanted a tall, blue collie.
Now I have a tall, blue collie, and am less sad.

Outlaws Cobalt Gambit "Coba"---
It can be disconcerting
to be walking along casually and happen to glance past my knee
to meet
the expressive and polite
laser-blue gaze
of the sheltie
glued to my heel.

Little Rogue of Earthsea---
was Kestrel's little dog, but ours
and then she was my little dog, and she grieved with me.
Now she's her own little dog, comfortably retired.

Jezibel Jackel---
The smaller, silver one
last of the wolves who raised me.
From wolves I learned to love until you die;
how I will miss you when you're gone.

Kitties next, then birds!

The conure sharing my breakfast rice
is forgiven all sins of obnoxiousness,
any loud cheeping
for the gleam in his eye, his messy beak.
