Analysis of Two hobbling in the rains



They were drenched
Man in his
Mechanized chair
One leg gone.
Doggy skipping alongside
On three.
Happy tongue lolling.
So proud of that
Plaid rainwear
From last Christmas
All was exceptional
Exercise plan.
Minding not downpour
Or grim looks received.
This was a bonding
Most hurting relieved.

About this poem

True life reflections one rainy day. I promptly pulled over to capture it all by pen. Be on the lookout for similar opportunities for the Holy Spirit to minister to you and others.
