She sat there
reading
as it watched
the statue
made of
stone
she thought
quite rightly
that she was
sitting quite
alone
but happily the
statue watched
as she perused her
flyer
it’s stoney heart
began to soar
his joy just took him
higher
for lonely was
the sculpture he
shackled to one
place
the joy he felt
this very day
came from looking at her
face
This is literally the best thing I have read in a long, long time. THANKS so much for writing this poem (and off the cuff, too!). I absolutely adore it in every way. 🙂
Hmmm. You could, in a way, say that it is a dog park. I have not read the poem yet (not even sure what you are talking about), because I am answering the comments in reverse order. Now I am curious.
Thurberville!! (aka Columbus, Ohio…) 🙂

It IS in Columbus, yes, right around the corner from my mom’s apartment. 🙂

Thank you. I was hoping I didn’t mess up your “comment” section. The picture just set the words in order and there it was:) Thank you so much.
