A Joyous Song of Companionship

The morning sun spills across the porch, casting a golden sheen on everything it touches. There, in a weathered rocking chair, sits a whiskered old man, his face a roadmap of countless smiles and sorrows. Beside him, a white labrador, whose fur almost glows in the light, listens intently. The man's raspy voice, a gentle melody fills the air, weaves tales of days gone by and adventures shared. Each note dances on the breeze, a private serenade for two souls bound by years of companionship. in morning's embrace, old tunes float on sunlit air— shadows dance, tail wags

what a delightful Haibun about a long lasting companionship between a man and his dog. You captured that feeling in the narrative part of your poem. I especially liked: a gentle melody fills the air, weaves tales of days gone by and adventures shared. Well done, Don. Have a pleasant evening, Sara
