The dawn sun
Has just begun to cast a pale blue
On the swampy ground

An old man and his old dog
Wait patiently among the reeds

It’s not because they have to hunt
In order for their larder to be stocked with food

No more than anything really has to die
And yet they do

I felt the still, heavy air surrounding the man and the dog. Vivid visuals, John

Many things happen, just because they do.  Your imagery cast a picture in my mind that holds on.  So well done!
