hanging her head from the window
on a fast moving car
with the sea winds blowing across
her nostrils
she communicates joy.
With leaps and bounds, she joins
my wanderings into the car, upon the
sand and up the trails to new faces
and places; she is never daunted;
always adventurous;
ever ready to go.
Remembering those feelings, watching her
refreshes me and keeps the past somewhat
alive and not so dead.
looking for the treasures in life, death and all the in-betweens
