Today it’s Monday again. The last Monday of the month. What will today be like? It’s just another day like all of them. My daily thoughts are on the kids returning to school in my area. I looked at a news app only to see the bus driver is wearing a mask. I find driving dangerous wearing a mask as if you wear glasses the glasses can get fogged up from the mask. Sure they fog up but I only have walking around in store experience of getting foggy glasses not driving. These kids will be wearing masks all day and I don’t find that a good thing to have it on for any length of time. I feel it needs to be replaced after certain number of hours worn; clean mask put on the face.
Today’s AUGUST acrostic piece and verse is about my neighbors dog. I enjoy watching him when he is outside. It is entertaining as he will lay in the grass for short period of time soaking up the sun. I decided to write about him for some reason. Maybe because I see him everyday and he’s such a cute little fellow.
I hope you all enjoy your day.
Until next time....as always be safe.

Again this morning I watch my neighbor’s
dog enjoying the outdoors
Unaware I’m observing him, he gazes
toward my window
Glad he can’t see me staring at him as he
scans his surroundings
Up onto the porch he goes, then back onto
the grass
Soaking up the sun for brief periods,
barking at the cars passing by
Till he goes back into his air conditioned
residence, I’ll keep peering out at him

(For Barney, my neighbors dog)
The dog does not see me watching him
as I gaze through my window
It’s early morning as he lays in the yard
Soaking up the sun before the weather
becomes too hot
Intently he watches cars pass by on
the street
barks at the bicyclists going down towards the lake and the joggers hurrying past his
domain
His woofing penetrates into my house
Scurrying up on his porch for a brief few moments he laps water
then returns to his spot in the yard
I sip my morning coffee finding I am
entertained
The dog is more interesting than the news on television
