of a kind

 

 

"a  world weary samuel 

finds a shady spot

beneath a grove of aspens

 

sunlight through the quaking leaves

dappling the earth

perhaps dappling his thought as well

 

a religious man   his faith well tested

he pauses in his work

no one can know his mind or read his thoughts

 

not zoey   and if not her   then who

perhaps clover

sheepdog slash companion  

 

who rests her own weary body

against samuel's thigh"

 

 

~

 

 

what do you think   i ask lin

lacks something   she says

 

what might that be   i ask

substance   she says 

 

you're a cold one   i say

think so   she says   wanna try me

Another valuable 'deep' offering, my friend, and the double-edged sword at the end brought a smile to my face. Brilliant. Blessings, Allen
