the third time

we watched in awe
he and i
how can something that beautiful be so silent
so we watched in kind
together

she changes everything
and never makes a sound

all he can think of is getting out there and biteing her
running all over her
and making her yellow

all i can think of is how she can change an entire landscape
and not brag about it
but, she never does

we go outside to enjoy her
he, biteing and pranceing
me, feeling her on my face and watching him enjoy her

for the third time this year it snowed
we woke up to a beautiful blanket of white
perfect white
silently changing everything

my 120 pound great dane puppy, o'neill
and i
sitting on the sofa by the window
looking outside
in awe of what mother nature can do with out a word
so we followed in kind
watching without a word
