In "What Is She?", I especially like the lines, "she plops to the ground, tail a metronome, waits for the signal it’s okay to play, takes the first step in the introduction dance..." In "Halloween at the Dog Park," the lines, "Probably not a parolee. Still" made me grin.<br /><br />I've written an original poem, "When Pigs Fly," that was inspired by a photo that Laura Salas posted on her blog yesterday: <br />http://jeniwrites.livejournal.com/34727.html<br /><br />Thank you for sharing!
