3WW, Poetry, short story

fulfilled.3ww

faithful to the cause he wandered over intoxicated by a mouth watering scent hanging in a still air. pressing his nose through brush and dirt he began circling madly as if under a spell to isolate the fragrance. oh so happy and unwilling to howl he plopped into oblivion his paws clutching the prize. tuned in to an unchanging truth he began to scrutinize and sniff the horizon searching the unknown. Noting nothing he chewed and licked till the very last of the bone’s marrow disappeared.

  1. Wow. Well done. I have a big dog in my life these days and her favorite thing is the bone. Big ol’ beef leg bone sawn right sized with some shards on it and big marrow within it. The bone provides hours of concentration for my dog friend as she gets every last molecule of marrow and meat, and a significant amount of bone as well.

writing is everything...
