Dog & man (Day 1180)

& so they maunder   
the dog & the congenial old man
alone   but for each other
while they can   the outline 
of the woods   where 
a span of violets   like butterflies   
entices them to linger   to savor 
that elusive scent
& along a crumbling road   much used 
but quiet now   they walk
until a pleasant lassitude descends
