Shady Valley

Shady Valley

Thank god there are no holes to fall into
and we can assume that all of this is grass
and under it the docile dirt

There are many assumptions we make
about the Earth, our planet, our pet

which is funny
but not to us

because a pet does not know it’s a pet

An appropriate amount of water continues to fall
over Shady Valley so that it remains lustrous
and not a swamp

No alligators here
No wolves

Sleep can find us here
