A Long Walk

Casey
Such a beautiful day

I decided to bath my dog in the pit

Packed a towel, shampoo and my knife

Since there are many animals around here

Long walk to the pit

Blisters on my feet

Just to find the fenced it up again

Walked another mile to the next lake

Cooled my aching feet

Washed my sickly dog

Then turned back to walk home

My feet killed, my bad hip started throbbing

It was a much further a walk than anticipated

I tried to thumb a ride

But apparently that's a dead art

I limped my way home

Since I forgot my phone

Fortunately didn't run into any unruly critters

Or for that matter an unfriendly people

What a walk...

    On my planet "anima;s" means animals. Pardon my character disorder. LOL!

    ...and you had that quality time with your dog. Good thing the "anima;s" left you alone.
