Quadrille: Love Echoes

black whippet on loch shore in morning sun

an echo of winter
clings to the corries
while melting snows
flow into the loch
once more

all that is green
grows and glows
in the morning sun

stars of blue
dance in deep water
while sand feels
warm underfoot –
so full of promise

Extraordinary Days

In our dog’s eyes every day is a special day. They watch in awe as milk and oats blend into porridge on the stove. Wet noses touch my hand when I fill their bowls with the promise of walks and ball games. They bring toys when I put on my boots, lick my face as I tie the lace. I lift their leads from the hook by the door while they pogo-bounce in the hallway. When we walk through the gate new adventures await.

stag’s roar owns mountain
until his echo fades
a memory
