In the sky
Debbie from Travel With Intent quotation inspired image: Looking Upward
“I try to avoid looking forward or backward, and try to keep looking upward.”
Charlotte Bronte
Up there
in the sky
Can you see?
So high
soaring on
invisible currents
He is there
look again
Can you see?
Hunting
can he
see us?
Majestic
almost gone
glad you saw
Wings spread
so happy
you looked upwards.

to me
I knew at once
although
our language
was different
I gave him
what he wanted
he thanked me
He talked
to me
again
I understood
such a different
language
Many times I
gave him
what he wanted

him
I tired though

I couldn’t
the language
unspoken

his eyes

Awaken the Sleeper
The Inspiration Quotation from Debbie at Travel With Intent
“Without new experiences, something inside of us sleeps. The sleeper must awaken.” Frank Herbert (1920-1986), author of Dune, and much more
The back story
Benny the cat was a ferocious cat. A feral parentage was found alone at a friends place and was bought home as a tiny kitten. He was hand fed by my daughter. Benny used to chase the girls as they played, but could be sweet. He was a real killer. Nothing in the garden was safe. A neighbour used to visit with his dog until one day Benny clawed him in a surprise attack. From that day on Callum the dog never came with Geoff. He would walk as far as the front gate and then turn back home. Benny has been gone for a few years now and the birds have returned to the garden, the skinks have tails and the neighbourhood dogs still are scared to come down the drive.
One day I came home to find Benny with his “dog” which he had a as kitten. This dog used to be dragged all over the house turning up in unexpected places. I don’t think Benny wanted his photo taken with him cuddling his dog.
