On such a balmy sunny day,
dogs raced across the field and back
excited leaps, come what may
the afternoon of Christmas.
Leashes unlatched, they were free
barking and racing while
the humans like me
marveled at their loveliness.
True beauty lies around us
not in holiday madness
or making a harried fuss,
lest we miss our time with loved ones.
