wind from the sea
an old dog bares
its teeth

    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!

    the man's frown
    mimicked
    in the dog's snarl

    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…
