I believe she knows
I share the last
of the water with her
All things are broken
incomprehensible
made worse by night
But still she kisses
They say
she is an ignorant animal
but it seems she shares with me
senses circumstances even
in our shabby home
tonight
a healing poem
ReplyDeleteThanks Robbie, it is interesting to examine the language of animals, but they do seem to know when you are trying to help them. My horse has done amazing things in order to protect me. It has shocked me.
Deletemoving poem for sure...
ReplyDeleteThanks Beatrice. I am moved by the way my animals interact with me and the ways in which they show gratitude.
DeleteA very poignant and touching poem - I felt really moved by it. :)
