Day Seven

Euphoria [Elena Martinez-Vidal]

Look at those faces.
Those big cute eyes and those cold button snoots.
The quirky eyebrows and the little toes
Oh my GOD the toes
and when they hop
like little foxes
up into my lap
as if they aren't growing steadily too big
and then peer up at me
with those EYES
And then there's the SNUGGLING
Oh my GOD the snuggles
And its like pup heaven
and I'm done.

Day Six

Wet Footprints [Thank you Carey Rasmus.]

I do not often visit the beach
though I can enjoy it when I go.
I like the sun,
the cool ocean winds
the warm sand and blue sky.
But walking in the sand is like dwelling in the past:
If you linger, you sink
and when you pull away to move forward
those imprints fade
and when you turn to look at where you've been
there's nothing but more sand.

Day Five

Theme is Hunger [Thank you Elena Martinez-Vidal]

Free Lunch; A Haiku

Something I love now
Once work has carried on long
Is the free food. Yum.
