d. o. double g.

i have been taking my dog to the ball park for some big running and energy spending time.  it's nice to belong to a dog for a change.  my voice puts the weight of the world on his shoulders.  we are learning to understand each other.  so, today, when he dropped his stick and stared into the hundred acre woods, i stopped to stare too.  when he came to sit next to me i got goose bumps on my arms.  when all the birds in the trees stopped chirping...we both high tailed it back to the car.  i do love belonging to a dog, but the mountain lion can have someone else.
