Darlene De Beaulieu Poet Etheree

Awakened From a Deep Sleep

In the sunshine on the living-room rug
     Sparkles was asleep in the sun
     How I longed to give her a hug
      He ears perked up from her sleep
       When she heard a Dove's sing
        Quickly she bounded
         To the glass door
          On the floor
           She sat
            Stared

Joseph P. DiMino June 17, 2022 at 2:02 PM Cats are great company and meditation to wonder -- doves are music. Of course, to other friends of ours, they are more a meal. Who knows. I had a black cat that seemed to love birds...would not hurt a feather. Go figure.
