The people who belong
to their dogs
congregate
at the dog park
tho they say they are there
for their pooches to socialise
They don't like to sit there
when nobody else is around
in their glarey sunspots
they huddle around
seeking the shade
and wholeness
of each other's company
detailing the habits and ways
of their "wards"
and picking up the poops
without disdain
sharing dog stories is
just the start
to sharing secrets
of t he heart!
