when we feel like this
we need our pets to save us
as only they can
Morose Monday

A Bluebird Afternoon
so simple, really:
the teens play cabin boardgames
while we ski for love
Unseasonable
trapped in October
a winter snowfall gets lost
among leafy trees
my dog doesn’t care.
he loves snow as he loves me:
unequivocally
sometimes his love hurts
so pure is his devotion
(unreturnable)
like these autumn leaves
that can never give the tree
what it gave to them
Mount Bierstadt
first: the moon and sun
second: 8.5 miles
third: a fourteener
fourth: pomapoo strength
fifth: learning to climb mountains
sixth: altitude high
5:30, Mama??
pooped out each morning
pup is tired of school days
only one month in!
Front Range Burnout
a weekend hiking
is the only proper way
to enjoy summer
Road Trip 2019: Day Seventeen, Red Sunrise
red sun, glassy lake
paddling with the puppy:
perfect lakehouse day
Road Trip 2019: Day Thirteen, Minneapolis–The North Woods
a tornado scare
led to this downtown hassle
with a sparkling Vista
delayed flight gave time
for a capitol your
offering domed wealth
my man has arrived
for our drive to the North Woods
where water saves all
Road Trip 2019: Duluth, Day Seven
cycling is life
as we tour Duluth’s sights
from bridges to ships
Road Trip 2019: Day Six, Gitchi Gami
you haven’t ridden
over the Rockies; not yet.
Superior wins.
with a pup and girls
(unread itinerary)
we biked thirty clicks
Minnesota wins
for elevation record
on these little legs
and to end it all:
waterfall, campfire, cheese.
who would ask for s’more?
