My dog, she is sleeping,
Eyes closed,
Mouth open,
Breathing even,
Round furry head
Upside down or sideways,
Paws large and relaxed.
Her legs chase a dream rabbit,
White eyelashes flutter,
Her tail, usually curled tightly about her hips,
Lies flat on the bed.
But the ears,
They never sleep,
They are always alert
For my every step,
I sit up. She is up already,
So that she might follow me
Wherever I might go.
