Listen

 Listen to your animals

They have beautiful things to say

Be sure to make some room

Don't allow clutter to get in the way

Hush your racing thoughts

Quiet up the mind

Giving these little gifts

The presence of your time

The Loose Sock

 "The left one just doesn't want to stay. He wants to spread his threads. Go another way. Adventure is pulling him off. What shall I do? I guess I can stop him by putting my foot in a shoe?"

Traveling Upstream

 

To go

 Mom said to not go very far,

Luckily, I am small,

And the backyard being large,

I don't need to leave,

To go somewhere new.

My blanket

 I just can't do anything until I know my blanket is OK. I mean, what if he never comes back? Mom says he was dirty and he would be back in a bit. But lots of things mom takes from my room are never seen again. She makes lots of silent decisions which usually involves my stuff. Maybe we'll become a cops and have a stake-out. We'll catch her in the act. First, I think we need a nap.
