Sleepy Baby

I love to watch you sleep

To watch your diaphragm rise and fall as you breathe

It’s like that Aerosmith song

I wonder what you’re dreaming

As your paws twitch

My sweet pup, you’re such a gift

I admire how your blonde feathers whisk

They go in all directions: some blonde, some more gold

Some are soft, while the ones on your ears are bold

My baby

For you, I’m sold

What are you dreaming?

Tall waves

Or about shish kabobs – your faves

Tomorrow we’ll fulfill your dreams

We’ll go to the beach and munch on treats

Because you’re my angel

So lovely and sweet

Good night, baby. Sleep sleep sleep
