In the Moment

In the moment
This very moment, I sit and wait
For the sound of a car engine
For two people to get out

I will smile and rush to unlock the door
To say welcome home
Welcome dearly felt for my sister and her husband
Why am I so welcoming

Have been dog sitting, their 3 dogs and my own
Just for a few hours, but am soooo stressed
Firstly there is Casper a lovely deaf boxer
No trouble
Then there is Star, my 6 year old Boxer
No trouble
Then there is Boris, a westie cross
Oh my! barking Boris I call him
Finally Harvey a 6 month old King Charles
Has a few water work problems, just been re-homed and nervous

Am I stressed
Am I thinking of a large glass of wine
No I am thinking of Two
This is my moment

A glass of wine is a lovely soother after a stressful day, even two as you say Seren. Nice little poem, James :)
