A black and white dog stands stands in a forest on a snowy day with snow on his nose with the person who loves him most.

We were out first thing,
curious for the new day,
thankful, together.

A small smoothly shaped piece of ice on a branch at the edge of a deep forest at sunset.

balanced small on a branch,
reflecting the woods?

we set out in the sunshine,
seeking — together.

on a path we took often,
quiet, together.

around it we were complete:
sun, grass, wrens, zinnias.

we walked among the creatures,
were creatures ourselves.
