My Example poem
Puppy Dreams (Trochetta)
Dogs do dream I have
a notion-
dreams of pleasant
things.
Mine can't dream
about the ocean
nor the pomp of
kings.
Ocean's spray he's
not discovered,
royalty's abstract!
Grizzy burrows under
covers
firm against my
back.
Twitches might mean
he is running
after his green
ball;
Maybe he's supine
and sunning
waiting for my call.
