Huskies-jubilant, laughing, single-minded, and
Serious as they pull their sled
further, faster, running with boot covered paws
Along edges of mountains, across the “frozen tundra”
through miles of wilderness, between forests and out
across lakes frozen for months, and streams still
only half solid stuttering with trickles of
winter spigot of water.
Stamina never in question- pulling, all for joy!
Strong shoulders, thick fur,
working together, barking out their symphony
ready to move as they’re snapped into the
harness, no pausing, just unbridled energy.
“Look at me!!!” “Here I am!!!” “Come and join me!!!”
All grins and woofs inviting human notice,
Delighted in the attention, such openness, welcome, freedom.
Coats of all colors, eyes of blue and grey, fur
Bristling, those upright ears- all part of the package of a
Husky.
