sitting on the porch smelling the flowers growing nearby I'm with Zoe and a glass of cheap California burgundy moon beaming down at me I raise my glass and toast the moon Zoe growls, ears alert moon's reflection bounces off the wine glass bright moon casting my shadow its light its glass raised as if toasting me back cheers old shadow, I say the moon, my shadow and Zoe and myself with three for company I'm doing alright good company too, if I dance my shadow follows my lead sometimes I sing old songs and the moon accompanies me I like my company but if I happen to drink too much we all part ways except for Zoe she never leaves my side someday it is my wish that all four of us will meet for a reunion up there deep, deep in the Milky Way’s expanse ©January 19, 2017 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

ah, burgundy musings. The love of a good dog will make any moon shine brighter and your wine that much sweeter. Counting your blessings will always make you feel richer. ~L |

I love this Jerry (huggles and cuddles and kissles to precious little Zoe). I too love my own company along with that of my 5 furbabies and the moon. |
