The dVerse Poet’s prompt today is the word “flush.” The poem is to be a quadrille—-exactly 44 words, not counting the title.

Morrie looks pretty happy. The dogs are glad you are home. That’s a good thing, right?

I enjoyed the way you wrote this and thought of my own foot as it keeps my porch swing rocking. 🙂
