Shoulder Buddy

Boo Radley, our rescue Schnoodle with multiple issues, fears, and insecurities, just likes to be close to us when we are settled and relaxing. His favorite thing is to get on the back of the chair and put his head on my shoulder, “sharing” my headphones. Every once in a while, as if on cue, he reacts to a poem in the same way I do……and I can feel it!

Boo Radley sits listening

to new poetry

I feel him react

lift his head, take a deep breath

and I do the same
