Few animals like wind. It messes up their senses.
Children are prone to become unruly…difficult to contain.
Dogs bare their teeth when they're threatened…a good reason NOT to smile at them, however well-disposed you may feel towards them.
Lots to think about this one, thank you, Nickolay!
Your poem made me think of seeing this related image at the park, Nick!
Wonderful and maybe a burden, too, for other sentient beings like dogs
to read our emotions…
Enjoyed it very much.
