Headed home on a quiet country road, enjoying the
verdant beauty of the island, and running directly towards my car was a little
yellow puppy, all alone. The pup ran as fast as a baby can; I slammed the
brakes, opened the door, and the next thing I knew without getting out of my
car, I suddenly had a puppy in my lap.
I don’t want another dog, but the baby fell asleep
on my leg before I turned on to my road. My dogs don’t want any more dogs here.
Who wants this small thing? I stroked its head; it moaned and grunted.
Robert Redford, Blondie, and Lucky greeted me at
the bottom of my driveway and raced the car up. Whining they waited for me to
open the door. The pup perched on my forearm; I allowed them a sniff before
bringing the critter inside where we wondered what’s next.
