loves to be held…

there’s not much love
in me today
i don’t know why
until I hold
my little dog Bodhi
a funny little fella
16 pounds

found at the pound
15 years ago
He loves to be held
He loves to be kissed
He must be part human
He brings the dog part
of me that forgives
unconditionally.

I love writing--It's my joy, my therapy--my confession. I'm a performer, dancer, yoga and meditation instructor, write a poetry column for Rafu Shimpo. Growth and love of life is a key to my happiness.
