A Midnight Stroll on the Beach…

Poem Artwork

Dogs are not allowed on the beach

In summer months & I think it is bogus

But no one seems to care in the night

Rufuz does deserve a stroll on the sand

Hopefully of doing something illegal

I did not of my puppy teach…

 

The ocean was quite as well warm

Maybe 70 degrees would be my guess

He chased me into waves & out

Couldn’t swim due to the rip currents

So we just strolled ignoring the distant storm…

 

The moon was almost full

The sky so clear & bright

Almost did the night feel like day

You had to see it in person to believe

Though I would not over your eyes pull the wool…

Ed,

Kudos to you and Rufuz! May you swim forever, even after he's President.

Beautifully imaged - you took me with you and Rufuz - thank you. Still praying that job is yours! In Jesus' Name, Amen.

If you were mooning again on the beach, brother, I'm glad I didn't see it. But glad to hear that old Rufie boy had some fun!

I see that you have a yellow face, Mom in China or what?
As for Ruffie boy, he can have all the ocean he can care for, never mind those jerks that say "no dogs allowed in the beach" when you see around are a lot of overweight dogs in spandex bikinis strolling aroun to our chagrin, nobody told that "dogs" that they weren't allowed there for been a sore to the eyes.
Run Rufuz, run, your world is full of freedom.
