My Backyard
The wind blows
The trees whistle
Silence does not come fast
The palm trees move
As the wind dances with them
A canine looks out on his area
With his chocolate brown eyes
He is different from his brothers and sisters
As a black and white German Shepard mix
This is his home
The warm green grass
The sticks in the yard
A dirt path towards the back
This is my backyard
