The Unheard Hound

The hurriedly hushed 
hound who 
passionately persists 
 to pant and pound 
out his hazy half hummed howl 
holding its pale painted 
point into view . 
Wishing that each 
and every word 
would be like 
a blissful 
bird of buoyant blue. 
 Gracefully growing 
up firm fresh 
and free. 

Fully flying off 
into someone 
 else’s ears 
to tenderly 
tell his heart 
  touched tales 
trembling within 
life’s trampled 
 trails of tears . 
Forever frozen within 
The flashing fragility of fear.
