Reflection: Ghosts

This poem was inspired by the dog barking  at the front door, but never finding anything on the other side.

Ghosts

a dog on the couch,

looking out the window,

barking at ghosts,

in the rocking chair,

she sits.

defenseless.

pleading for protection,

the dog ignoring her pleas,

her ghosts real.

the dog's ghosts surly, only make-believe,

the ignorant beast,

still on the couch,

barking at ghosts.
