This Minutes Captured View

Just
a piece
   of sunshine
slanted in
this door of glass
to warm the teal carpet
with streaks of window pane
and patterned leaf shadows
that danced in teasing movement

Puppy chase phantom foliage
in vaulted joyful game
before a cloud killed her prey
the sway for tiny dog
to drowned in all that light
and lay full out with body splayed
mild and devoid of scamper
and smiling slide her eyes
beneath her paw and droop of ear

Then from the feeder
with wings accelerated
a mid air knight
with trusty spear
frenzy     fortified
      while
Just
a piece
   of sunshine
slanted in
this door of glass
to warm the teal carpet
and its Precious sun-drenched warrior

This is so cute. My little dog used to like to play with the sunlight rays and his shadow, too. Now he has a new toy he'd rather play with....a little live cat. She likes to play with him, too They're so cute. You can ask him where is his new toy and he looks for her....

Hugs,

This gives me the visual of sitting back with a cuppa just relaxing for that all to infrequent half a sec. I don't often get the strong visuals like that. Nicely done.

(giggles in delight) Oh Martie, this is sooooooo cute, sweet friend, I love puppies and kittys, one time when I was a little boy I had a kitty and one morning my kitty was in the sunshine near my bed and I gave her a yarn ball and seeing her roll around with it in the light made me smile and giggle! (kiss on cheek) This is gorgeous, sweet friend, yay, I love this, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Martie, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Martie,
you will be remembered, for the depth in which you capture moments of the everyday, that make up life.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown

You make me want to be there, share that moment and its small but priceless meaning.

Your poetry is so inviting that the reader just has to go along for the ride. Has to.
