I can see you
watching with concern,
rest assured:
a lesson was learned.
No more dependency,
in somebody's spell,
it's now all on me
and I will excel.
I was at my lowest
when you help me thru,
taking me higher
for the perfect view.
Promises made:
self-love will accrue.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat.
