Neighborhood Gift

When the bed creaks and the mattress rises It is time Not a hint of animosity of being ripped away From nights cocoon In darkness thumping rythmic tail Clothes doned in hast Leash, poop bag, flashlight Dog Before dawn's birthing frog and bird sing in unison. Refreshed and appreciative of small dog bladder The neighborhood is ours
