Walk
by
Persephone Abbott

Your knees, my friend, are hairy
And they don’t touch mine.
It’s the nuzzle of the wet nose
Patiently behind my kneecap
That tells me it’s time.

Persephone Abbott is a multilingual musician and writer who lives in The Netherlands in the historical city of Gouda. Born in America, she left to live in Europe at a young age "to pursue a life different from what she could have otherwise experienced." Learn more about Persephone at http://persephoneabbott.com/.

When Ava, our poodle, stands next to my chair and stares at me, it's four PM, time for her walk. You can set your clock by her. Persephone captures that beautifully.
