Avenue Of The Pines
No excuses. He kept me on task.
You can’t explain things to a dog. Apologize for the inconvenience. Reschedule.
You can’t blame the clock or your hectic schedule or your heavy workload or the demands of others. You can’t text him or leave a voice mail. You can’t thank him for graciously accepting the disappointment. You can’t cancel due to bad weather.
You must deliver.
Seek peace,
Paz
Cousins
Me: Did you notice, in this light, you and Gus are almost the same color?
Chuy: Color?
Me: Yeah, you know. You’re both mostly black, you have that in common.
Chuy: Black?
Me: Yes. Unlike Doone, who is only a little black.
Chuy: I’m sorry. I have no idea what you’re talking about.
Me: The differences. In colors.
Chuy: You forget, dogs are colorblind. Me, you, Gus, Doone. They all look the same to me.
Me: Oh yes, of course. I forgot.
Chuy: Your color thing is useless. Probably why the superior canine is not hobbled so.
Me: What do you mean?
Chuy: Well, it doesn’t tell you anything about what they are like on the inside.
Chuy And Doone
Seek peace.
We mean that.

The Thinker
From my perch on Earth, looking up into the sky, the turkey vulture is the same size as the Moon.
Eyes can only look.
Throne Room
Some people had this thing they called “Earth” day, and I wondered where they lived the other 364.25 days of the year.
The Grotto
Guess what’s outside!
The Whole World!
Come on!
Thursday Trail
Sometimes, thinking is just not what we need.
Let’s walk.

On The Runway
Hey, I’m just one dog.
It’s all I can be. It’s all I can do.
That needs to be enough because it’s all I have.
I don’t waste any time thinking about what I’m not.
How about you?

Summer Sun
So, there you have it.
There are no more “somedays” for us.
Mind this lesson.
Birthday Boy
I’m wagging you my telepathic
Dog voice, my dog voice, my dog voice.
I’m giving you my Yoda Face
My Yoda Face, my Yoda Face.
Standing in the Snack Place
The Snack Place, the Snack Place.
You’re not looking.
I stop wagging…
…
…
You looked!
I’m sending you my dog voice,
Dog voice, dog voice.
Giving you my Yoda face,
Yoda face, Yoda face,
Standing in the Snack Place
The Snack Place, the Snack Place,
And I am wagging.

Out Here
Know what Shoulda, Coulda and Woulda did?
Nothing.
Let’s go.
