He Brought His Dog
Why he brought his dog
We'll never know.
There was barely room in the car
For the three of us. Plus him.
And the dog.
But he rode along.
Apartment by apartment.
Just waiting in the car as we looked.
Pacing floors and
Checking views,
We considered locations
Observing features,
Weighing drawbacks,
Admiring exposed brick
And open floor plans.
I thought I was the third wheel,
But the dog competed for this title.
He won--I was superfluous.
Calmly greeting us after every visit,
Masterfully showing patience,
He was along for the ride.
I was anxiously worried about price;
Could this be afforded?
He was steady.
It doesn't matter.
You'll find your place.Discussion about this post
