Adoption Day

Adoption Day

Gotta have faith...

Today we may adopt
another dog,
and so I'm sitting,
wondering:
who's more nervous,
me or that dog?


For many years,
I believed I knew exactly
what I needed, and
how much I had
to give in return.

I was often wrong.

So today I step back
and pray that I will allow,
kind spirits to show me
the way forward.


Faith...
must be enforced by reason...
when faith becomes blind it dies.
~ Mahatma Gandhi
