2007/granddog

Outside on the deck
with my grand dog
and the cat.
Warm Santa Ana day,
the palm tree rustles
and sways,
all the wind chimes
come to life.
Even the ones I haven’t heard
in months,
like the Om chime with bells
that never ring,
which I use to hang my
laundry from.
Hoping God understands
that I have to do wash.
