One might think it strange:
a wayward, rampant boy
whose rough conditions early on...
...one might think would cause
a frenzy of foster parents
falling left and right,
a stack of cards misdealt;
but a good old faithful friend
learned to attack
his checkered moods
with wholehearted love
and sublime attitudes...
...one might think a calming channel
that coaxes robust energy
to settle down, enjoy life
as it is now, not how it was...
...yes, one might think
the ball is finally in his court
and, thanks to his dog, they’re correct.
