I have a Rainbow in my pocket.
To the Beach.
Walking on the beach,
Shiny shells at my reach,
Waves splashing at my toes,
And tossing me rainbow coloured shells.
Now I have a rainbow in my pocket,
I have sunshine in my heart,
Feelings are bursting like a rocket,
Dancing to the colours, to make my art.
Colourful flowers,
Tall strong trees,
Sun showers,
Birds and bees.
Jumping for joy,
Nature is my toy,
Butterflies and love,
Peaceful white dove.
Running streams,
Water across pebbles,
Living dreams,
No more troubles.
With all these thoughts,
I'll keep all my life,
While looking at the moon for astronauts,
And searching my area for wildlife.
All the good things I will remember,
Will be as beautiful as amber,
The colours of sunset and sunrise,
A peaceful, happy life to be wise.
So catch a shiny rainbow,
And put it in your pocket,
And save it for a rainy day,
To make you smile all day.

Dog Number 13
May 15, 2023 Strange things are happening. Good-strange, bad-strange, and strange-strange. For starters, me and all my litter mates are able to stand. Some of us can even wiggle around in a clumsy manner. I say wiggle because it isn’t quite walking but it isn’t quite crawling. We just sort of stand and wiggle and fall and take a few steps and then crawl and then get up again. It is in this manner we are able to move around to some degree and explore our surroundings. Naturally we cannot go far. Which is ok, I suppose, because I am very small and I need my mother for food and my siblings to keep me warm and I feel very loved and comforted by them in some way, so I don’t know why I would need to go very far. Having four legs, I must admit, is very strange. It is not a surprise to me that it is challenging to coordinate them to move in the order they need to move. But I can get around a little bit, my eyes can stay open for much longer periods of time now, and it is easier to understand what is happening. So this is new.
