for Bud



Marisol does not find it odd
A dog spelled backward is a god
Not surprised to realize how
Dogs are gods of the here and now

I need not look up to the sky
But down to this dog to know why
The here and now is how to be
When looking back at me I see
The present as her present to
Me as why not as why will do
Here and now for a dog or me

Nor looking forward find it odd
A dog spelled backward is a god
Not surprised to realize how
Dogs are gods of the here and now

Very nice tribute to dogs who are so faithful, protective, and even seem to know how you feel, yes, somewhat like gods they are!

Love ya!
