Shared Territory

One lopes through 
his dense tree occupied domain,
  thinly dappled,dispersed stripes 
                     gleaming,
    dully on a soft fur coat,
  tongue lolling lazily in and out of
           a pearl toothed mouth

   Another careens widely across
       her vivid fields green fields
               wind flapping back
                     watchful ears,
             screeching to a stop to
                          sniff and 
                hone in on the scent 
                of a shivering quarry,
               jet black fur shining in
                           blazing light

               the last scampers neatly on
                       swift toes through
             his unknown vine-tangled trails ,
                   ever exploring the lands
               beyond his own vast territory,
                 unveiling whatever remains
                   covert to his curios mind

                  My dogs seem out of place
                                 in my backyard
