Ingrid Showalter Swift Poet Free verse

To Walk Your Dog

And where for art though gone from my text? 

to tree or hedge or ....coffee found
Perhaps to bed and cushioned pillow down

Ahh but only to the backyard 
a shiny moon to see

 and while you see the glowing orb ...do you ever think of me?

And where for art though 
in the car or by hedge or in a coffee shop?

Ahh but only to the backyard 
your loyal dog to walk 
and when you gaze up on the sparkle 
that dances on the sea
Do you ever stop to ponder  ...Do you ever think of me?
