This is what we do

This is what we do...
when it gets too warm inside, when we wish to feel the crisp air on our noses.
when we want to go for a walk, when we want to see something other than the inside of the fridge.

when we want to feel healthier, when the dog starts to feel restless. 
when the sun is starting to give into twilight, when the warmth seems so far away. 
when we need to feel the harsh winds from the North Sea, when we want to see wildlife. 
when we need to feel small and the weight needs lifted from our shoulders. 
when we are tired from doing nothing,  
 when we need to get out of the house,
when we want another view of the village, 
another view of the things we always see and need,

We get the dog on a leash and taken 'em for a long, long walk.  We come back dirty, rosey in the nosey, happy, and very, very sleepy.
