I buy 3 corn cobbs
every couple of days
for chippie
and take a look
out to my patio slider
watching him eat.
this is one of many
unexpected beauty
and wonder
of
nature
in ones
own
backyard.
I don’t have
to drive 50 miles
to the
forest to make
a new furry friend.
who says money
can’t buy love?
and, it only costs
a couple $$
to fill this old
man’s heart
with joy.
