MY PET
by Joanna Gilman Hyde
The Hawk Kitchen Outpost 9:44am
Gully is ringed by daisies now.
He stands in the rain
like a lawn ornament
in the grass I’ve grown wild —
His tameness is endearing
with His quizzical head
swivelling to the sequence
of thought —
or is He following
the wonder
animating the field
before Me?
I see in my mind a field of light – everything luminescent. Love his quizzical head swivelling to the sequence of thought!
My backyard is definitely brighter because of Gully and now he has a friend.
