Milou has injured her right back paw, on yesterdays walk
i know not what she has done, she would tell me if only she could talk
i examine her toes, nails and pads, for any signs or clues
she still seems happy to bound about as she has three others she can choose

Unfortunately, maybe fortunately, tonight i do not have a lot to say
we have new friends over, jolly good company and a night of play
but it is very late and my mind is a bit of a fog
so if you'll excuse me ...that will be all for today's blog

I enjoyed a mornings work with a really good friend
their garden is really quite big for one of them to tend
Milou had again to wait
she is patient, and tomorrow, an early walk we will not be late

This afternoon we made a scarecrow with Raoul and Izzy 
a bundle of straw some old jeans, a shirt and we all got busy
it is a first for Milou, and many years for me
good fun, Milou got to explore new ground, collarless and free

Milou is very patient, she has a long wait today
with gardening and french, this morning getting in the way
she is so excited when we finally leave
having thought she has done wrong, it appears a magical reprieve
i have a friend to meet at four
i am late and Milou and i race for the door!

A warm sunny afternoon and it seems there is a very giant screen
 no longer an outline or hazy shadow of a mountain to be seen
the grondin are jumping high out of the lac
and landing sideways with a resounding smack
we meet some friends and their half husky Verlaine
we exchange words and greetings, and are off on our journey again

We spent the morning at a vide-grenier, some would say car boot
Not much fun for Milou as she was dragged stall to stall on foot
after a lunchtime drink with friends sat out in the sun
it was pretty late when we left for the fields beyond the cemetery, to have a proper run
