Sleeping In

Cuddling with you is a treat. I don’t want to move, even to eat. Lying on my lap. You paws do their taps. Turning my pillow over. Your purr as gentle as a shaking clover. Then I hear your inflection. A meow giving me direction. But before breakfast- Let me take a picture really fast! The first thing I do. Is pull out a can for you. The bowl is out, the bowl is full. But she’s being coy, and it’s taking a toll. Of course, she snuck back to bed! I give in and let her rest on my head.
