There They Sit

There they sit, on a chair on the lawn in the sun in the chilly early-January air. There they sit: a boy with his ice cream (in the chilly early-January air!) and his book, and a dog -- the dog trying mightily to displace the other two.

There they sit, on the chair on the lawn in the sun in the chilly early-January air. There they sit, the boy on the chair, his nose buried in his book, the ice cream now eaten; the dog under the chair (the ice cream now eaten) sniffing the air.

There they sit, with the blue sky over them and the sun shining down on the bright green lawn and a new year just beginning.
