“New Year… disruptive energy, if we don’t learn how to
harness unbridled energy…”
Rangy Rumor, whipped 2D hound roaming with
acceleration around, finally stopped, distracted by my invocative whistle.
Appeared from accidently opened door the dog was
standing at the base of stairs. The light from the lamp in a little corridor
above has been reflected in his eyes…
No, wait, in his right eye! Red fleshing stone
underlining enigmatic meaning of my encounter.
Big expressive eyes.
As if from the book by H. C. Andersen “A flint”. But instead of Cups,
Wheels or Towers – the red stone, the ruby, deep crimson. “The queen of stones
and the stone of kings. Talisman of passion, protection and prosperity”, -
remembered from the beading brochure.
Every time, when I tried to sit snugly on the couch
the dog found me and threw his rangy mass careless on…as if saying: don’t waste
time.
Finally, with passive humbleness I let it happened:
Rumor half sit half laid on my laps.
Almost immediately I leaped from the coach: feeling of
boiled water scared me. Next I could imagine -
his eye melting the clay
figurine…
Restless, rogue Rumor found under the arm-chair with
curiously watching him kid – the patchy blue on white balloon, bit it and left
choked on the floor.
Probing next venture, he was sniffing poodles-twins,
napping nearby.
A knock in the door defused the tensions. Rumor’s
owner, dark headed teen with warm eyes and soft voice happily reunited with his
puppy.
“…Mercury in Aquarius – we get ‘new set of eyes’…
Self-control and patience should be a part of our survivor gear. “ - concluded the astrology forecast.
Found again, after some poodle fun haha a new way of looking at things can sure come due with an addition or two
ReplyDeleteSometimes it takes the instinctiveness of our four legged friends to nudge us towards seeing something different..so sweet!
ReplyDeletehaha... not bad to look at things with different eyes and self-control and patience...oy...have to work on those...

ReplyDeleteA happy ending...nothing like the stressed heart from losing a pet
ReplyDeleteI am happy that Rumor found your writer/narrator (you?). Because of him a new set of eyes was found. Same old eyes but they were seeing new. Very nicely told, Hum B.
ReplyDeleteWriting towards a horoscope as a vehicle was neat idea, it turned out good.
..
His lucky day..
ReplyDeleteThey can certainly help to put some semblance of order. The good thing is they are relatively easier to train! Nicely humbird!
