Visited the lake today with my ever ready walking pal Saw gatherings of floating geese savoring early morning joy With eminent elegant black necks and heads with striking white cheeks They were dabbling in shallow waters with heads dipped down for a morning feed Swaying in a long line in a playful manner I saw many pairs enjoying squawking, honking and flapping with an amusing demeanor Light colored breasts and dark brown feathers Drawn-out curved necks and webbed feet bottoms Socializing with bobbing necks while making spherical breakers They looked absolutely dazzling frolicking and whirling in the lake waters I enjoyed the scene while playing fetch with my lab Was glad to see that her swimming and fetching didn’t disturb them at all Being compliant, they moved away a little from the shore Giving the lab some room to carry on the game that she adores They kept relishing twirling in the lake showing their cooperative communication Teaching me about important family values of love, care and compassion

I am captivated by your vivid imagery, Smita. The message that we can live in harmony together comes across clearly...the endline also makes an impact. ~ Best regards // paul
