headlamp required
only a hint of first light
narrow dirt path
descending
dark through the woods
five toe-catcher tree
roots and new broken
branches to dodge
happy dog leads
field and four-leggeds
ahead twenty minutes
of wild free play
pure joy of running
snagging the ball
wrestling and rolling
then the leash, again
and home for the day

This may encourage me to post some of my Holly poems.
I find it amazing that we (may) share ownership of a black greyhound 😉
