Alive

ALIVE (nonet) Well it’s a splendid day for a walk Sun riding high a cloudless sky My old dog whining urging A fine stout cane waiting I’m out the door Head held high Fresh air Joy!

Saw a movie named alive and I thought this was going to be a survival poem or something by the title. It was all bout nature and your good friend, how wonderful, enjoy your sunday.:)

Yes, enjoy these beautiful days while you can, Daver. Soon we'll be dealing with the summer heat and hurricane season here in Florida. There are so few days inbetween the cold and the extreme heat. Wish I could go walking with you and your dog! Love, Carolyn
