The Missing Dog (Haiku)

The dog is missing—

it is somewhere, ignoring

its mum’s worried calls.

To Be Wild (A Poem)

Dogs, everywhere, are trying to remind us

not that we should wag our tails

and be free,

but that we are free

to wag our tails.

The Cowering Earth Dog (Poem)

The firecrackers start

to welcome the year of the Earth Dog,

though it seems they make every effort

to make every dog cower and whimper.

Our Little Friend (A Poem)

A white friend,
You dreamt of,
When your friend was grey.
