I think my dog
writes poetry
as she lays on the couch
and sighs.
I think
she's writing
the poems that I'm not.
Perhaps they are floating
from my brain
to hers
before I can catch them
like those fluffy milkweed seeds
born away by the winds
of my childhood
before I could grab them and
make a wish.

I like this poem. It's fun! I think animals do write poetry. Her sigh may indeed have been a reflection of your thoughts. I like the imagery of the milkweed seeds floating by. And, look, it did manifest into a brilliant poem.
I think dogs understand on a subconscious level, what we are feeling.
