It is 4pm
Dave the dog is in the kitchen
Chasing rainbows
As he does every day at this time
A prism hangs in the kitchen window
Creating a multitude of rainbows
On the kitchen floor
Dave the dog thinks the rainbows
Come to play with him
He has never caught one
That does not dampen his enthusiasm
I envy Dave
I would like to devote
Some time each day
To play with abandon
Giving my entire being
To the beauty of the moment
With no thought for productivity
Chasing rainbows

Dave was a great dog! I miss him too.
