Ice Fog & Dog Doors


Coaxing my car door to close at
Thirty-eight below zero
Is more than I want to deal with
In the morning darkness

Today my dogs will play in the garage
Happy with the new doggy door
And have tea parties with old Tupperware
Waiting to hear me come home

Running outside with martyred looks
They hope I will believe they battled
Ice crystals and ice fog
All day and that I will give out treats

Too cute, aziza

I've not lived in cold like this, but I can just imagine this scene.  I'll bet you gave them treats too, along with a pat or two.

This reminds me so much of so many people I saw and met while living in Alaska, z. It brings back the sense of harsh beauty. Thank you.

rascals....

so funny aziza
you have to wonder
what is it they do when they are alone
a tea party is not that far fetched
