A favorite Yehuda Amichai love poem for Valentine’s Day. (On a flight to San Francisco now. Headed out there to pan for gold….No, to read at the JCC. That’s where I’ll be tonight.) 

A Dog After Love

by Yehuda Amichai

After you left me
I let a dog smell at
My chest and my belly. It will fill its nose
And set out to find you.
