Lucky

This morning I brought my dog, Lucky, down to the dock and we took my boat out to the harbor. I anchored and we sat and looked out at the water in silence.

After a few minutes, Lucky said, "You seem glum."

I said, "Yes, I was hoping sitting here would help it pass."

A few minutes went by.

Lucky said, "Has it passed?"

I looked around inside. I said, "Yes!"

Lucky said, "Good, now can you take me for a walk?"
