Pure Joy

In the kitchen window:
a garden of howls and barks
They cry for pleasure
for the simple reason that they can
Once they tried to synchronize
to send up a collective sign of joy
But having resisted organization
or leadership for so long
they soon drifted back 
to spontaneous cacophony

You should hear what they do in the middle of the night when you guys are asleep. (remember they live in your kitchen window)
