A brief encounter with my dog of many years past



Sheets warm

Comfortable

Lights off - dark

Through closed eyes I see the night sky

Almost black

Slight brightness around horizon

“Go and see the sky!”

Bed is so comfortable

Warm

Peaceful

“Go and see the sky!”

O, Alright

Warm robe

Glass door

Night

Calm

Peaceful

Night sky overcast

Bright

Total beauty

“Go outside!”

Huh?

It is cold out there

I am comfortable here

“Go outside!”

O, Alright

Air cool

My two dogs come running

Vinny and Li’l Buddy

Vinny comes to me

Li’l Buddy fades into background

Vinny sits before me

Cup his head with my hands

Look into eyes

Intense recognition

Buddy-Boy appears

And is gone

My teacher from long ago

Buddy-Boy

Who traveled with me

Hundreds of thousands of miles

If not millions

On the highways of America

Buddy-Boy

Who taught me of GOD

Buddy-Boy

Bed

Wide awake

Thinking

Contemplating

Meditating

Who is Vinny?
