Paws and Peace

In grey sheets twisted, mind in repeats,
a brown labrador snores beneath the cover's warmth.
The chill of breeze floats in with gentle ease,
my heart trapped by this chocolate form.

His snores a lullaby, tail thumps in dreams,
chasing squirrels, slobbery kisses reign.
My heart's melting, caught in furry schemes,
this labrador's snoring is my heart's refrain.

The day's jpegs loop, but night's calm I claim,
with labrador snores, my worries fade.
In this sweet chaos, my heart's at play,
stuck with this bundle of joy, in endless stay.

In snoring charm, my heart finds its way,
with labrador love, I'll stay.

How adorably sweet Angela, I am happy to read your poem tonight. I love Labradors, we have had two lab mixes over the years. I miss my sweet boy who was with us many years. He held our hearts in his sweet paws. Your poem reminded me of him so much <3

Hello Bj It is always lovely to hear that someone enjoys Labrador's as much as I do. They truly are endearing and precious in every sense. I love mine dearly. I am glad you enjoyed it.
