Companionship

this morning

a strange leaf

turned out to be 

a small lizard

sunning himself

i wished him a good day

walking on

three stones sat like buddhas

by my Bay

I sat with them

i rested on a bench

two seagulls flew overhead

one landed on the end of my bench

he looked at me with his dark black eye

i looked back

human companionship

may be overrated
