Afternoon Routine
Clicks on hardwood floors, Anticipation building.
Saunter over as if you never have before; For the millionth time.
_Gently jump _
_Fabric ponder _
You circle like a shark, Deciding its next meal.
Everything precise. Everything peaceful.
Sharp love will pierce my skin— As you settle in place.
No need to rush; We will savor these moments together.
The elevator hits the final floor You settle into your favorite spot.
Jet plane rumbles on my chest. Fragile fur falls on my face.
These are moments I will never regret doing nothing.
