Puppy's first snowflakes ... and me
Snowflakes are starring the frozen pond’s reflection
Juncos slip, slide and skate away
across a solacing winter wonderland
puffed plumage shaking off the wintry weight
as the snowbirds gather
on the threshold of a beautiful dream
She sits and stares out wistfully,
wild eyed as a young caged lioness
half frisky ... half uncertain
... twice giddy with a wholly unknown joy,
without a care in the world
oh! what nascent little sparkly green eyes do tell
savoring the input ...
from the newness of heightened senses
enthralled by Lilith’s magically woven
frozen gossamer spell
And I’m overwhelmed
by a swelling rogue feeling;
stirring an echoing void deep within
like being silently buried alive
by an enrapturing impossible dream,
from arm's length,
just a frozen step away
Beheld in an unsatiated yearning
to teach of tasty snowflakes reincarnation
Frosty the Snowman is waiting patiently
and the forgotten inner-child's dreams,
memories of happy birth days past,..
feeling deeply
grandma’s softly spoken breath
in my heart and on nape of neck:
"its too cold outside for angels to fly!"
Wishes upon frozen stardust
to blissfully discover
a playful festive enchantment;
an old soul and a shaggy puppy’s
spontaneous shimmer and glee
Serendipitous snowflakes pile up
like a blanketing befallen silence
with a newly begotten peace
knowing intimately,
if we are lost we are lost together
mesmerized
by just being in the harmony of now
Puppy's first snowflakes ... and me,
and the leaves come falling down
...on this day I am the rescued and healing
"to start with the ending : is the best way to begin"

the soft inside the hard
the love inside a grateful heart
being a protector of precious paws
is something to be―
"If it be thy will" to be remembered,
for others to know and understand ;
a deep love, love strong
that abides passionately within,
not the traces of misunderstood darkness
that stain life in unplanned
and incomprehensible ways;
life isn't always as we would choose,
yet if there were a choice,
I would still shamelessly choose
... to do it all over again
the circle of life, the passing of love,
dusty puppy's first snowflakes ... and me
will be ❤ ❤ ❤

Hard to believe Lucky Dusty came from a death row
