Ode To You
You are who ever
I am the writer
You read what I write.
Do you hear my words?
Each letter a different note,
Turned in a symphony of noises.
In a five-stanza poem I can make music.
Do you see what I'm writing?
Can you see the dog wagging her long black tail
Against the side of the computer and her nugget sized brown
Eyes looking up at me, making your heart melt, giving her anything.
Her long hair reaching to the floor and endeared the dust mites collecting
In it. Stubby, sinuous body reaching out and feeling every change in the air, soaking
and processing it all into the movements of the room analyzing,
Waiting for an attack from the cat.
My words flow from my open mind
Onto this once blank ivory page
The words appear black
And they are.
