their worlds

by Charlie Morgan

three dogs, wanting appreciation, fill my two hands;
so, how can i stake a claim on the vein of loneliness.

to exist is to experience life, a chandelier of dreams,
glittering, tinkling, mirroring blotches of childhood
across all four walls of ages, phases, a dream caravan.

a clawing for attention, for pleasure of petting;
hairy-neon signs of "welcome" to their three universes.
my head's tail wags of love caress my universe of one.

I love the way you let your imagination fly to the chandelier, etc. in that second stanza. The last 4 words are a great admission by such a humble person as you. Well.... that IS a LITTLE tongue-in-cheek... but part of humility is truth and being able to notice our own ideosyncracies is a big piece of the truth. So much more to love here... another grand piece, Chaz. Thanks.
