Musings on Life, Love, and Linguine-Poetry & Writing
A man and his dog, hearts fierce and strong
sit in contemplation on a gorgeous morn
while shadows play across each face
as they enjoy this magnificent day
The dog content to be by his side,
the man grateful for all in his life
Weathered hands that can create
beautiful works of art, and yet caress
my tender heart with incredible grace

Yes, it is. At that moment, I was merely a bystander. It was a special moment captured between the two of them.
