"Dog-Walk" Poem

pasture's high fence

the lots of desire

she is denied

linking the paired gates

describe the reasons why the pasture is off-limits

show the dog still finds the walk exciting

illustrate what the dog enjoys about going on a walk

suggest that each walk follows the same sequence of events

appreciate the close relationship between the dog and the speaker

understand why the speaker keeps the dog out of the open pasture

visualize the dog's enthusiasm at the beginning of the walk

focus on the parts of the walk that the dog finds most appealing

defeated

relaxed

confident

lonely

return to the comfort of her home

explore new areas beyond the fence

follow the familiar path around the field

take breaks during the walk with the speaker
