A Dog's Life

He presses up against the open door where the sun glows and warms the carpet. Such simple need he has that give him comfort and joy as his eyes close soaking in the warm sun's rays. His shiny soft black fur absorbs the light casting his small shadow across the floor. He drops his head and stretches lengthwise taking in the radiance and he sighs quiet and soft. He is toasty warm stepping into the shade just momentarily to cool down as he rolls on his back. He returns again, loving this morning time holding onto it as long as he can before the sun rises higher and is out of sight. Life is so simple living a dog's life.
